Gold Award Dynasty Jin.Y Brandy XO Barrel-Aged 18 Years | |
 | The brandy is made from high-quality grapes grown on the southern foothills of Yanshan Mountain in Jizhou, Tianjin. It is distilled twice using traditional French cognac-making techniques and aged in French brandy oak barrels for at least 18 years. The brandy is dark amber in colour, deep and intense, as transparent as crystal, with a fragrant and long lasting aroma. The complex aromas of oak, flowers, cinnamon, vanilla, and dried fruit, among others, are perfectly integrated. The wine has an elegant aroma, a smooth body, a round taste, rich layers and a long lingering aftertaste. |
Bronze Award Golden Dynasty Dry Red Wine | |
 | The wine is made from the grapes grown in north of Tianshan, Xinjiang and the east of Helan Mountain, Ningxia. The immaculate ruby red colour, culminating in a blend of perfection permeated by delectable berry flavours, bursts of oak aromas and herbal fragrances offer an elegant, full-bodied and silky tannin experience. Perfect for pairing with hotpots, dishes with a slightly heavy flavor such as grilled foods and stewed fish. |
