Bordeaux via Ningxia. A bold yet refined red from one of China’s most acclaimed estates blending 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot. Grown at 1,200m on the eastern slopes of the Helan Mountains, the fruit benefits from warm, dry days and cool desert nights, resulting in deep concentration and lifted aromatics. Ripe cherry, plum and hawthorn-layered blackcurrant, cooling mint, oak spice and even a bit of dried tobacco. Smooth, structured, superbly savoury... it’s rich without being heavy. Grapes are handpicked, cold-soaked, and wild-fermented before ageing in a mix of French oak and stainless steel. A striking example of how far Chinese wine has come!

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.
