This illustrated introduction to Chinese wine explores the history
of wine production in China, the legends and customs that surround
it and its place in China today. Traditionally, Chinese wine and
spirits were made from grain, and had three important uses: to
perform rituals, to dispel one's worries and to heal. Today, wine
is still believed to have a therapeutic benefit, but the Chinese
beverage industry has expanded on a large scale and now includes
famous brands of beer and, increasingly, vineyards producing red
and white wine for global consumption. Chinese Wine is
indispensable reading for both wine-lovers and all those with an
interest in the transition from traditional to modern Chinese
culture.
