KLM first began serving wine from this prestigious Dutch vineyard on board in its World Business Class in 2006. To honour this festive occasion, KLM brought together the biggest-ever-KLM-wine-tasting panel.</p>
]]></pp:summary><description><![CDATA[<p>The &ldquo;Wine Queen&rdquo; of vineyard <em>De Kleine Schorre</em> Nadien de Visser and the King&rsquo;s Commissioner for the Province of Zeeland Han Polman were seated at the tasting table alongside KLM&rsquo;s regular wine-tasting panel including professional wine connoisseurs Hubrecht Duijker, Harold Hamersma and Ronald de Groot. The panel, convened specially for the day, comprised more than 100 guests including KLM&rsquo;s Frequent Flyers from the Netherlands, cabin crew members and customers of vineyard <em>De Kleine Schorre</em>.</p>

<p>During the tasting event, the panel conducted blind tests on four different wines, three of which were ultimately selected. The wines selected will be served on board in KLM&rsquo;s World Business Class in 2017. They are all superb wines produced from the Pinot Blanc, Rivaner and Auxerrois grape varieties.</p>

<p><strong>Experience on board</strong><br />
