Qantas First Class menus

Concur!

None of those reds should be on First menu

It is insane that they go from a $120 pinot that is arguably the best in the country, to a random $42 pinot.

And even the $120 price point is nothing compared to what you see on the ME3 or Asian carriers in First.

Depends on the Asian carrier for F reds.
JL/NH are quite average. Same with CX, but looks like they are recently improving their offering.
Don't recall TG to be any good, but that was a long time ago.
SQ probably the best and most consistently high level F red list.

Very hard to go past quality of wll wines in EK F. "Emirates boasts the most extensive wine cellar of any airline - dedicated facilities in France which currently house around 6 million bottles of fine wine, some of which won’t be served until 2037. - several First Growths from Bordeaux in the coming years, from the renowned estates of Château Mouton Rothschild, Château Margaux, Château Haut-Brion, Château Cheval Blanc, and Château d'Yquem."

In case you couldn't tell from other pics in this thread, the new menu is now in a leather binder, although mine was obviously worn (a month or so old?!), with an odd 1.5 page folded type of arrangement. The half pages at the front.
The "dine on demand" worked kinda OK - I had the steak main for breakfast. The F ovens were all being used at time of request, so they had to wait for a free one from another galley which took an hour.
Plenty of hot towels.

Forgot to take the menu on the return flight - they take the binder before landing. D'oh.
My choice of entree wasn't loaded at all on QF12, so to make up for it, they gave me a second main
