Lahao hen hao: Wine, beer options

You rarely see wine from Xinjiang’s Les Champs D’Or or Chateau Bolongbao 2005 wineHebei’s Chateau Bolongbao in retail shops, but Lohao in the Central Park complex has both. The shop offers four kinds of Les Champs D’Or, starting at RMB128 for table wine, while Bordeaux-style Chateau Bolongbao is RMB260.

(Oh! Marco wine shop near Financial Street stocks Bolongbao, too.)

By the way, Central Park is no slouch when it comes to wine, given that residents have plenty of options at Top Cellar, Pekotan (where Palette Wines has space), and Madam He.

Lohan’s also offers a nifty selection of beer, including some Russian, German and Japanese brews as well as Old Speckled Hen, Belhaven Twisted Thistle IPA, Greene King IPA, and the like.

    The growth in China’s wine industry is amazing from the terrible wines of ten years ago to the great wines of today.
