(CNN) —China has no wine-making tradition but the country now uncorks more bottles of red than any other.

It's home to a growing middle-class thirsty for new tastes, international vintners trying to win their share of the market and Chinese winemakers working to find their own identity.

Here, four wine experts, who appear on the latest episode of CNN's On China show that airs this week, examine some of the myths that have grown up about wine drinking in China.

Myth? Chinese don't know much about wine

Fongyee Walker, co-founder of Beijing-based Dragon Phoenix Wine Consulting, says that when she first started educating people about wine, her students were focused on a narrow selection of premium red wines.

"They talked about Bordeaux of course and some talked about Burgundy," she tells CNN's On China.

"Now I have students arrive in class and they say, 'Well I've heard about prosecco and I love drinking it.' Or 'I really like New Zealand sauvignon blanc, it's a very exciting drink, I love it in the summer.'"
