Banfi flies high!

The prestigious wines of Castello Banfi will be served in the Business Class of three national airlines.

From 1 October 2010 and until the end of December, the Belnero, Banfi's latest label and expression of the company's strong and indissoluble bond with the terroir of Montalcino and its main grape variety, Sangiovese, will be offered to passengers in Aer Lingus Business Class.

"Belnero is the latest wine born at Castello Banfi in the last decade," says Cristina Mariani-Mayowner of Castello Banfi. "We are very happy that it has been so well received and that travellers from all over the world can enjoy it".

Banfi flies high!

Also this year, British Airways' International first class frequent flyers will have the chance to enjoy a glass (or two!) of Castello Banfi's signature Brunello di Montalcino.

The wine selection of British Airways was made by Jancis Robinson, MW, one of the most well-known personalities in the international wine world.

Finally, Korea Air has selected for its Business Class the prestigious Fontanelle, a 100% Chardonnay that expresses itself with great substance and intense aromas, thanks to the microclimate of our northernmost Montalcino vineyards and the ageing in French barriques.
