Regular price$64.00

Tax included.
  • Orange
  • Malvasia
  • Ningxia, CHI

An explosive orange, Sand Lake Moon gently whacks you with hits of grapefruit, yellow apricot, peach, preserved jasmine, and orange blossom. It's intense, aromatic, and textural… it really feels alive. Whole-bunch fermented in traditional clay pots and aged naturally, it layers silky tannins across the palate, with bright, bold acidity carrying flavours through to a lingering finish that recalls smoky sea breeze and salted plum. A blend of Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Malvasia, Moscato Bianco, and Sauvignon Blanc, the grapes are organically and biodynamically grown in Ningxia’s clay and limestone soils.

About the Winemaker
Emma Gao | Silver Heights

Founded in 2007 by Emma Gao and her father, Gao Lin, Silver Heights is a family-run estate perched on the eastern slopes of the Helan Mountains in Ningxia, China’s most dynamic winegrowing region. After earning her National Oenologist Diploma in Bordeaux and interning at Château Calon-Ségur, Emma returned home to craft expressive, terroir-driven wines from Ningxia’s high desert. With vineyards at 1,200m altitude, the estate benefits from intense sunlight, sparse rainfall, and stark diurnal shifts, allowing grapes to ripen slowly while preserving freshness. Soils of clay, gravel, and pebbles add texture and tension. Emma has farmed organically from the beginning and introduced biodynamic practices in 2017, blending Western technique with the rhythms of China’s traditional lunisolar calendar.
