最受內地紅酒客歡迎的波爾多 Lafite紅酒,不時在拍賣場以高價成交。

增長凌厲壓倒英國

波爾多葡萄酒協會主席 Georges Haushalter表示,亞洲巿場對波爾多紅酒需求持續增加,當中以中國大陸及香港入口量增長最凌厲,去年總金額高達 34億港元,壓下英國成為波爾多紅酒最大客戶;中國大陸的入口量按年增加 71% 1,900萬公升,金額增加 98% 12.7億港元,香港入口量按年增加 65% 610萬公升,金額更增加 126% 21.3億港元。

波爾多名酒莊不多

紅酒專家劉致新表示, 08年本港實施免紅酒稅新規定後,大批頂級紅酒即時湧到香港拍賣,而中國經濟起飛,內地人對紅酒需求急增,進口香港紅酒大部份轉銷至內地,「佢哋食飯,一箱箱紅酒咁飲」。他說,內地豪客對波爾多紅酒情有獨鍾,「一嚟波爾多酒莊唔多,一級酒莊得五間,對大陸人嚟講好易學;其次波爾多紅酒啲名又短又易叫,唔怕叫錯尷尬,所以 Lafite最受歡迎」。
