"It is
not uncommon for a bottle of Lafite ’96 to fetch a couple of thousand dollars
more at auction in China that it would in Europe. Many (?) Chinese enjoy the
showmanship of presenting important guests with this kind of celebrity wine,
and my favourite aspect of it all is that many prefer to take it with a splash
of coke.” From Around the World in 80 Trades by Conor
Woodman.
