"The Chinese Wine culture ia the 5 th largest wine consumer in the world
China has approximately 2,000 to 3,000 vineyards. The number can vary due to the rapid growth of the wine industry in the country, with new vineyards being established regularly. China has become one of the largest producers of wine in the world, and its vineyard area is significant, particularly in regions like Ningxia, Shandong. The Eurasian Grapevine first came to China during Han Dynasty around 2.200 years ago. China is a vast region, vith various winemaking terrains and climates.
Chinese wine regions:
China has several wine regions, each with its unique climate and terroir. While different sources might categorize these regions differently, here are the
12 major wine regions in China.
Yantai ( Shandong), Ningxia, Xinjiang, Hebei, Shanxi, Yunnan, Liaoning, Heilongjiang,Tianjin, Jilin, Gansu, Henan.
What are the main grape varieties in China?
The main red grape varieties grown in China include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Gernischt and Marselan; a handful of vineyards have grown Syrah, Pinot Noir, Saperavi, and Malbec.
Cabernet Sauvignon is the core red grape variety, and has the largest area under vineyard (approximately 30,000 hectares), from the Shangri-La in Yunnan at an altitude of 2,200 metres to the Yanqi Basin at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang, and to the coastal Penglai in Shandong.
Among the white varieties, the most common grape is Chardonnay (15,000 hectares), followed by Petit Manseng, Riesling, Welschriesling, Viognier and Vidal. As with Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay is planted in every wine region in China. This excellent variety has quickly adapted to China’s climate and terroir, and produces outstanding wines.
