Xinjiang

Xinjiang, China's vast northwestern frontier, boasts over 2,300 years of viticulture history along the ancient Silk Road, making it the birthplace of Chinese wines with unparalleled heritage that captivates buyers seeking authenticity and terroir character.

Positioned at the 44th parallel north with four distinct sub-regions—Yili Valley, Yanqi Basin, Tianshan Mountain North, and Turpan-Hami—this continental desert climate delivers over 3,000 hours of annual sunshine and dramatic 20°C+ diurnal temperature shifts that produce intensely concentrated fruit and balanced acidity in naturally disease-free vineyards. The region's unique geography, divided by the majestic Tianshan Mountains and irrigated by ancient qanat systems, combines sandy-rocky soils with high-altitude plantings between 800–1,100 meters to enable world-class expression from both international varieties and unique indigenous hybrids.

Wine critics describe Xinjiang as "an ancient yet young winemaking region" with enormous untapped potential, attracting international investors drawn to its exceptional terroir advantages and remarkable capacity for authentic, terroir-driven wines. Recognized as one of China's most exciting emerging regions, Xinjiang delivers premium, age-worthy wines with distinctive desert character, natural purity, and the historical depth that serious collectors increasingly seek.
