I'm going to Hong Kong again this weekend to run some errands, and I
thought I would try to look for some decent wines for drinking. I
don't know why it never occured to me before to try to get wine in HK,
but I think it may have something to do with the prices. For the most
part, HK still has an unreasonable markup (tax or whatever else excuse
they can find) on most wines. But, hey, if I can find a case of
something easy to drink, it would still probably be cheaper than a
bottle of the same stuff here on the mainland.

You fine folks know of any good wine shops in Hong Kong?

I've had bad luck (but mostly in Macao) with wine shops that are 90 deg
F indoors, and their wines taste it. I've had some Portugese wines in
Portugal that I loved, and the same wine in Macao was a disaster...
Good Luck!
