    15 years ago, I tried 9 Chinese wines with 3 fellow tasters in Beijing.

    A "where are they now?" post about a much different era of Chinese wine and about what happened to the tasters and wineries since that day in 2008.

    Note: We did the tasting at "Dishes of Mao Zedong Hometown" restaurant, behind the Hilton Beijing, with wines from Grace, Catai, Bolongbao, GreatWall, Domaine Franco-Chinois and more.

    Snarkiest comment: "I’m glad it’s not more than 28 kuai.” About US$3 at the time.

    Also, the producers of the two best wines in the tasting are currently in the top tier of Chinese wineries now.
