Huahao Winery - The rise of the Eastern Helan Mountain region

The Intertwining of Terroir and Craftsmanship: The Wine Legend of the Eastern Helan Mountain

As an international hub for wine trade, Hong Kong showcases top wines from around the globe. However, Huahao Winery from the Eastern Helan Mountain captivates with its distinctive terroir charm. At the start of the evening, Mr. Cheng Qian, the proprietor, elaborated on the region's natural advantages: located at the golden latitude of 38 degrees north, on par with Bordeaux in France, the area benefits from ample sunshine, significant temperature differences between day and night, and gravelly soil nourished by the Yellow River, yielding high-quality grapes. The journey of Huahao Winery, from its founding vision to becoming a "leader in Chinese Marselan," reflects the rise of fine Chinese wines. Its Marselan series has won 8 Grand Gold Medals and 33 Gold Medals in international competitions, showcasing the infinite potential of Eastern terroir.

Mr. Cheng also shared the winery's commitment to the "organic green" philosophy, actively pursuing EU organic certification and Demeter certification, demonstrating respect for the natural terroir and commitment to consumer health, highlighting the company's deep sense of social responsibility.

Terroir in the Glass, Dialogues of Time

The dinner was not only about tasting fine wines but also a dialogue about heritage and innovation. From Mr. Cheng Qian's explanation of the rise of the Eastern Helan Mountain region to young proprietor Cheng Yiyou's sharing of the new generation's story, guests delved into the adaptation and innovation of Marselan grapes in Ningxia, as well as the practice of organic winemaking. As celebrated by French wine master Julien: "Huahao's Marselan has a delicate and smooth tannin structure, with a soft texture that is intoxicating." Each wine tells a unique terroir story, emphasizing the growing significance of Chinese wine on the global stage.

The Artistic Medium of Time, Terroir, and Culture

On this night, wine transcended being merely a beverage; it became an artwork embodying the accumulation of time, the gifts of terroir, and human spirit. Each wine tells a different story, conveying the winemaker's understanding and respect for nature.

The Profound Significance of the Dinner

The Huahao Proprietor Dinner surpassed a typical product promotion, signifying that Chinese wine is now capable of engaging in dialogue with international top wines. It also showcased the international vision and cultural confidence of China's new generation of winemakers. When East meets West and tradition merges with modernity, Huahao Winery, through its outstanding quality, earns respect and recognition for Chinese wine on the global stage.

We will continue to promote Chinese wine culture, allowing the international community to discover the mysteries of Ningxia Helan Mountain. 🍷
