City announce deal with Wolf Blass wines

That's fairly poor for a country their size population wise. 564m bottles or around 2 glasses a year per head of population. Compare to 1.3 billion bottles a year in the UK with about 5% of the population.
Including the local wines 2.17 billion bottles of wine were consumed in China in 2013, Because Chinese mostly drink red wine, China is now the world's largest market for red wine. China's consumption of red wine has grown by 136% since 2008.

Bit more respectable now, only 10% per head of the UK (about 4% of the French) :)
 
WB won the International winery of the year at last years San Francisco international wine compt. I assume they know a bit more about wine than yourself.
Having attended a few similar such events myself down the years, in my experience they are mainly exercises in ego massaging and intellectual dishonesty, where prizes are rarely dished out on merit.
