Let's put an end to this back and forth guys. The problem here is the lack of knowledge and miss use of terminology on this board.

so, under the standard shipping guidelines, here is the logical scenario.

1-They sent to China 1 bottle or 1 case or 1 pallet or some pallets in a consolidated container.
2-They sent to China a 20' Container with 1 bottle or 1 case or 1 pallet or some pallets
3-They sent to China a 40' Container with 1 bottle or 1 case or 1 pallet or some pallets

Logic dictates that they will not spend $$$ on shipping a container, using a shipping company for 1 bottle of wine, unless its all a SCAM.

Under my investigation going to COSCO this Sunday, I ask the clerk how much can a pallet carry. A pallet can carry around 75-100 cases, each case has 12 bottles. in a 20' container they should be able to get 8 to 10 pallets, so on a 20' container the a avg. amount of bottle are 9,000 to 12,000 bottles. Using logic again a 40' we multiply it times 2.

Money wise is can be anywhere from $1 to $500,000 depending on the amount shipped.

Yes, it could be a 1,000 x 1,000 x 1,000 container for all we know. but, both you and i know that pinkies love to let the hopeful investor read things into a PR that are not there. I'm pretty sure that the container referred to was a good deal smaller than the 40' variety, or even the 20' variety.

BTW, 4x4x4 is a standard shipping size for wine. That size fits and stacks quite handily on trucks.
