"Pékin Castle"

In which common world do we already live with the Chinese without knowing it? A lively narrative that gives voice to a whole range of characters and takes us on the new Silk Roads: the wine routes. On one side, France, a country whose way of life is renowned for its elegance and pleasure. At the other end of the world, China, a vast territory where everything develops faster than elsewhere, especially since its shift to a market economy. Between the two, a bond of socialization, exchange, and transmission: wine. From the famous Vinexpo trade show relocated to Hong Kong to the private tasting clubs that are a hit in Beijing, from the hundreds of thousands of hectares of vineyards planted in China over the past twenty years to the grand Bordeaux châteaux acquired by Chinese billionaires, Boris Pétric sets out to meet the players in a slow (r)evolution: the rapid appropriation of a jewel of Western culture that the Middle Kingdom could soon become the leading consumer of... and producer.
