This blog anticipated Decanter again

This blog had posted about Chateau Hanson in Inner Mongolia last November last year, a good few months before an article on it appeared in Decanter last month. I have done it again with the Taylors 1863 Single Harvest Port launch, but I suppose I would have to admit that it was launched here in Hong Kong the day before the opening of Vinexpo Asia Pacific 2014, and that was some days before its London launch. Although Taylors talk of not wanting it to be all sucked into Hong Kong, I wonder about the accuracy of the remark. I was at the Pre-Launch Public Tasting and found empty seats there. Is this another case of rare wines being bought up as collectibles by wealthy Chinese businessmen, who like to show them off in their prized collection cabinets or are they really going to wine lovers who are actually going to taste and appreciate these ancient treasures?
