This ‘n that

We will start with eleven great bottles that David Spaid
found in China. The two 50ml bottles on the right come
boxed to celebrate the oldest cellar (winery/distillery) in
China. Obviously the 1573 date refers to the founding of
the company (Maison Foundee).

I cannot tell you anything about these six Chinese minis or the
pewter one on the next page. Good bottles though. The blown
glass bull is a truly great mini and at first I thought it was Italian.
The only identification on it is in Chinese. The blown glass pink
rose is from ChangYu Pioneer Wine Company & Wine Museum,
which David visited. There are at least two other colours.
