Rolling my eyes at this. I agree with Dirk and with Stan. You know, I understand the opportunity that would be presented to a winemaker with this--who could disdain such a well heeled proposal to utilize the winemaker's expertise--hard to deny that kind of compensation, surely. But seriously. What a joke. A basketball player. Big flipping deal--simply speaks to the ill proportioned weight placed on inflated 'celebrity'--athletes, 'actors', 'musicians'--contemporarily in the US , especially, but evidently in China, too. a $300 basic cuvee. Absolutely ridiculous.

Looking to buy cheap wine for China
Hello!
