(AFP) - The wine industry itself would have us believe that China will soon be the "largest vineyard" in the world but a group of wine experts told a seminar Thursday they remained unconvinced by the claim.
China's rising power in the world of wine was a main talking point during the three-day Vinexpo Asia-Pacific trade fair, which closed Thursday after attracting more than 15,000 people through its doors, a record for the event.
The event was primarily focused on bridging that gap between China's fast-growing demand for wine and the international winemakers who would like to feed that demand, while also providing a shop window for Chinese winemakers to show their wares.
