There's at least one winery, operated by foreigners in China, that produces generally decent wines. They're used as the house wine in one of the French chains, perhaps Sofitel, in mainland China.

Even decent wines in very decent restaurants (such as Capital M) is served at room temperature. Awful.
Mixed with Coke it is rather dinkable!
