这次的Vinexpo最大的收获便是对香槟地区的深入了解和学习。我把在本次Vinexpo最后的时光都放在品鉴香槟上了。终于使这次香港之行在香槟优雅美丽的气泡中画上了圆满的句号。我挑选了几支给我留下深刻印象，有些尚未进入中国市场的香槟酒，同大家一起分享那美妙的体验。

This time for the tour of Vinexpo, the biggest harvest should be the deeper understanding and study of Champagne. The full time I was all used for tasting Champagne when close to the final time. Eventually, this Hong Kong’s travel has painting a satisfactory conclusion with the elegant bubbles of Champagne. I select several Champagnes which have great impressively me, some of them has not entered into Chinese market, to share with the fantastic experience with all.
