Tasting
notes:
This is a full body red wine with aromatic
notes of black plum, black cherry and blackcurrant,
these kinds of ripened fruit characters are well integrated with some spice
elements of dark chocolate, smoke and pepper spice.
The uniqueness of the climate of Helan Mountains, e.g. enough sunshine, high
minerals content in the soil etc, contribute to this complex and rich wine and
also reveal the typical wine style of Helan Mountains in Ningxia. It’s powerful but also with smooth tannin and balanced acidity. Long
finish rewards you with vanilla, coffee bean flavours from the French oak
ageing.
Our winery and vineyards are located in the
golden zone of grape cultivation in China, Helan Mountains, Ningxia, the city
of Yinchuan. Here was the birthplace of the ancient and mysterious XiXia
Empire, which lasted between 1038-1227A.D. “Revere the land, Respect
the land, Return to the land” is our firm belief and leading us to
produce wines in a healthy and organic way. The irrigation of Yellow River give
a complex flavor to the wines.
Only 8,000 bottles available
annually.
