Despite growing domestic and international acclaim, China wine industry still needs time to mature

After more than 40 years of development, Chinese wines are starting to gain international and domestic recognition for qualities that are increasingly seen as comparable to imported wines. But in a market where imported wines are still viewed as a symbol of social status, local winemakers say the country’s relatively young vineyards and operations still need time to build recognisable and unique brands that can stand up to the output from traditional operators in countries such as France, the US and Australia.

Amongst the Chinese wine regions, currently Ningxia takes the crown, but Northwest Yunnan and Tianshan region are also worth the attentions.

Cabernet Sauvignon still occupies most of the production, but the specialties are Marselan and Cabernet Gernischt.

Ningxia (East Helan Mountain wine region), has recently started its winery classification system, similar to St. Emilion in Bordeaux. The best wineries are graded into two prestigious categories, and reviewed once every decade.

Despite worries from South China Morning Post, the average Chinese feels very optimistic.

After seeing the incident at Tsingtao Breweries🍺, it is in the best interest of countries to ban chinese 🇨🇳 alcoholic beverages.

[AnythingJW]

French wine is overrated. The Chinese will make a better wine eventually!

Like most things China sets out to succeed, apart from football, it’s only a matter of time.

Making fine wine is both an Art and very rigorous and precise work.

[JohnDoe]

they want to run not even knowing how to walk. You want already to be a brand be happy people link you to bordeaux in a postive way, they could also give a more negative link. If you are great people will know. Like your cheap labor and minerals. Even moutai is not international strong enough to be a world player in spirits

[BeijingGenocideOlympic..]

My condolences to the 1.4 billion of 🇨🇳Chinese victims whose health is being threatened by China's polluted *air, river, and soil*
caused by bad environmental policies of the Chinese regime.
