TIANJIN, CHINA--(Marketwire - September 2, 2009) - Legacy Wine and Spirits International Ltd. (OTCBB: [ LWSP ]) reports that a Restaurateur/Wine Distributor of the Company based in Central and Northern parts of China has sponsored two of Legacy's wine experts to tour China and introduce Legacy's wine selection to their customers. The wine and spirits sector in China is one of the few businesses that seem impervious to any recession as consumption continues its upward trend.

The objective of the sponsorship is to educate the prospective Chinese consumers and distributors with regards to Legacy's selection of wines and the art of food and wine pairing. In addition, the Company's wine experts will be making appearances in locations where Legacy wines are sold such as certain major hotels, karaoke bars and wine retail stores.

"The tour by our in-house wine experts is part of the Company's aggressive plan to pursue national corporate brand and product recognition throughout in China. There is a continual growing demand out there for wine education and the ability to purchase trusted, well-priced imported wines despite the slump in the economy. An example of the growing impact China has in the world of wine and spirits is the actions of Paris based wine and spirits group Remy Cointreau who despite a reported loss of 12.5% in net profits overall continues to see double-digit growth in China and is increasing its adverting budget targeted towards Asia," states Company President, Christopher Scheive.

Legacy Wine and Spirits International has forged an alliance with Bronco Wine, a private grape grower with ownership of 17,000 hectares of wine grapes and five Californian wineries. Legacy is importing 750ml bottled wines in several varietals of Bronco Winery's Hacienda Cellars brand from California to China.
