Classic Ningxia Cabernet Sauvignon Discovery
Repost from @piotr_dyjak 🍷 🇨🇳 🍷 - thank you Piotr for sharing your enjoyment of our wines 🍷 🙏...Château Changyu, founded in 1892, is the first large scale winery in China. Located in the Ningxia region, approximately 1,330 kilometers west of Beijing, near the Gobi Desert and the Yellow River......The region has more sunshine hours than Bordeaux, the vineyards are located in the Helan Mountains (at 1,100 meters above sea level). Perfect growing conditions drew attention of the famous Austrian winemaker Lenz Moser V. He is a fifth generation member of the Austrian winemaking dynasty...Talking about dynasties, the earliest records of winemaking in China are from the Han Dynasty times, around 206 B.C....Have a close look at the@changyumoserxv Cabernet Sauvignon 2016Dark ruby, with garnet shade, clear.Aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, coffee and spices.Dry, medium bodied, with fleshy tannins and medium acidity.Fruity, spicy.
