Reviews
... It is not only a delightful (and often very funny) read, but an insightful window into contemporary China. --Eric Thun, Peter Moores Associate Professor of Chinese Business Studies, Said Business School, University of Oxford Chris Ruffle had a dream, and it came true. He has built since 2004 what is now considered one of the best Chinese wineries. The action in the book is like a thriller (it would even make a good film), with the hero and his team winning at the end, with the glorious 2014 vintage. --Edouard Cointreau, The Gourmand Awards A Decent Bottle of Wine in China is a juicy book for any people who want to understand what it is like to run a small business in China and the joy of making wine. --Wei Gu, Wall Street Journal
