It seems everything these days from an iphone to a pair of H&M linen trousers is made in China...
And now there gonna be making wine too and not just vin de table.
China is already in the top ten of wine consumers in the world, most of it home gown, but they have a soft spot for fancy French vintages and not one to waste a business opportunity the Rothschilds - owners of lafite and Los vascos in Chile - are getting in on the act by planting a vineyard in China in a region with a similar topography and climate to...Bordeaux.
