Le Quinze vins, in Wan Chai and central districts in Hong Kong are pretty good spots to relax with a glass and buy a bottle to take away. Really Extensive french selection at prices very competitive to retail US prices even for drink-in. Lot of grower champagne too. I’m in love with this place. That is all.
No connection etc etc…
What timing! On my way way therefrom Macau now. Are they open late?
Yes, this is good news. I always try to make a 2-day stop when I do my once-a-year trek to SE Asia and always end up either going with beers or going dry when I see the obscene markups of any reasonably-known wines in restaurants and bars. I hope to be able to check this out next month.
last call is at 11pm, but you can linger for a long time after.
Some of the more well known wines have an acceptable to expected markup, but there are some gems to find (caveat: i spent most of my time in the Wan Chai location). I picked up a bottle of 2012 dauvissat les clos for 970HKD takeaway and a bottle of Bereche Reflet d’Antan chamapgne for 750HKD, both which seemed very reasonably priced.
