Grill 79
Grill 79 in Beijing runs a 321 bottle list that leans white, 178 to the rest split among 62 Champagne and sparkling, 32 other, and 27 dessert and fortified, with red notably absent from the top categories. Pricing is in Chinese yuan, from 95 up to 56,800, with a median around 710. Domaine de la Romanee Conti's Le Montrachet appears four times, a strong statement for white Burgundy at the top of the list, while Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label shows up three times in the sparkling section. Vintages run from 1985 to 2013. The 22 glass pours are modest against 321 total bottles, so most guests will be buying by the bottle.
