Agree re absorbtion of inventory: the rapid rise in the number of inexperienced importers made it almost certain there was far more wine coming in than being sold in China. I guess the 64000 rmb question is how much is left to absorb.

Cheers, Jim

Hope this finds you well in the New Year. Thank you for the wine import stats for 2012…not surprising though & in being in the market suspect that there was some absorbition of inventory left over from 2011. I wonder if consumption of domestic wine continued its stagnet pace.
Best to you as the year progresses,
Charlie
