In the evening, we held a masterclass session for the members of the 67 Pall Mall club. It was my pleasure to have Richard Bampfield MW joining me on the panel, to give his impressions of the wines, and Michael Sun from Panda Fine Wines, to share some stories about the wineries and why he chose these wines for the UK market.

THE CHINESE WINE RENAISSANCE is available in hardback and e-book.
