蒲昌 Puchang Beichun 2018

Country: China
Region and Appellation: Xinjiang

Puchang Beichun 2018 showcases Xinjiang's desert terroir with a luminous deep ruby hue and perfumed aromas of black and red cherries, cocoa, licorice, and a violet undertone that entice from the first swirl. The palate is smooth and suave, then elegantly firm at mid-palate, unfolding dark cherry, smoky plum, sandalwood, and sweet spice over fine, mouth-coating tannins and a long, rounded finish—evoking an Amarone-styled richness with superb balance for buyers seeking something distinctive from China.

Tasting notes

Aa unique hybrid of wild Jilin grapes and Muscat, grown only in Xinjiang, silky textures frame ripe red and black fruits with hints of quinine and cocoa; the finish is persistent, polished, and poised for graceful evolution from 2026–2034.

Winemaking

Fermented in stainless steel, then aged 12 months in seasoned (third-fill) 500 L and 225 L barrels, followed by 18 months in bottle for added harmony and finesse.
