AO YUN 2020
Yunnan - Red Wine -This 2020 vintage of Ao Yun is, for the 8th time in a row, the best wine in China according to Edward Ragg of Robert Parker.
The colour is dark red, almost violet.
The nose gives off aromas of red fruit, then spices and finally tobacco, a very aromatic complex nose.
The attack on the palate is dominated by red fruit, with medium body, it is a fine, elegant, supple wine with silky tannins.
Ao Yun is certainly the greatest wine produced in China. Meaning "that flies above the clouds" Ao Yun is inspired by the mountains where it was born, a wine produced on Himalyan terroirs at an altitude of 2600 metres.
The vines are located in a remote mountainous region of north-western Yunnan, on the UNESCO World Heritage site of the Three Parallel Rivers
The estate covers 27 hectares and is made up of 35 terroirs divided into 727 sub-blocks - a wine of goldsmiths!
The first vintage of Ao Yun was produced in 2013 under the direction of Maxence Dulou.
Respecting the virtuous circle of nature, the viticulture is 100% organic, autonomous and regenerative. 100% of the work in the vineyard is done by hand, with no machinery on the estate.
Each farmer grows plants that feed his animals, which feed his plants. What we take, we give back to Mother Nature
The blend is made up of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Cabernet Franc, 10% Syrah, 6% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot.
Only 60% of the grapes harvested are selected for this great wine.
The 12-bottle recommendation : This wine will pair perfectly with red meats such as beef and lamb or poultry. Open 3 hours before tasting.
