Item from Jan 21, 1985, in China Daily: Workers at the Beijing Winery refill a barrel in the cellar.
The well-stocked Beijing Winery is aiming to be the toast of the world market. Ambitious plans are going ahead to expand production and sell high-quality wine and whiskey overseas.
China is one of the leading markets for wine, with nearly 490 million liters imported between January and November last year, a year-on-year rise of 45 percent, according to the latest statistics from the China Chamber of Commerce of Foodstuffs and Native Produce.
