Tasting Note

Beautiful floral aromas on the nose, leading to more complex red and dark berry fruit notes, with savoury hints of cedar, tobacco and a warm touch of vanilla from subtle wood treatment- all in perfect harmony, with a built in feel good factor. On the palate, luscious, generous and moreish with a delightful freshness. A top wine from Ningxia yet we have focused on elegance and finesse, the wine has intensity and complexity without being overbearing or overwhelming.

A truly opulent venture into the blossoming world of Chinese wines. This wine is one of the splendid products of the marriage between Changyu Pioneer Wine company and Austrian winemaker, Lenz Moser.
