Ao Yun - Chine 2014

AN EPIC JOURNEY

Ao Yun, the first wine estate of the Himalayas, is born from a dream that began in 2008: to create a unique, world-class fine wine in China. Commissioned by Moët Hennessy, Dr.Tony Jordan embarked on a journey into the unknown and after 4 years of scouring the vast lands of China he eventually made it to North Yunnan, where he observed an ideal microclimate for a fine cabernet. The Ao Yun team, led by Estate & Technical Director Maxence Dulou, perpetuates this vision.

Ao Yun lies near the legendary and remote village of Shangri-La, in the foothills of the Himalayas. Ao Yun’s 27ha-vineyard is divided into 727 sub-blocks which are located on the banks of the Mekong River, in the UNESCO-protected area of the Three Parallel Rivers and below the sacred Meili snow mountain (6800m). Each of the 4 villages is spread over complementary altitudes from 2100m to 2600m and has different soils, sun exposure and microclimates.

Second vintage and the step up is clear - already standing among the best Chinese wines that I have tasted, and an amazing achievement for only the second year. Soft plum in colour, just beginning to show its 8 years of age. There's a touch of reduction on the first nose, with plenty of concentrated damson and black cherry fruit to sink into on the palate, along with sage, clove, saffron, fennel, liqourice, graphite, crushed rocks. Sleek and enjoyable, with the fresh acidities of a mountain wine coming through more clearly as it ages than I found when it was first bottled. This was tasted as part of the vertical, then drunk again later over food and it was even better - strongly suggest seeking out to see just what can be produced on this site with a bit of bottle ageing. Harvest lasted from September 14 (Xidang Village, 2100m) through to October 21 (Adong Village, 2,600m), significantly earlier than 2013 after a warmer growing season, with low yields of just 15hl/h. First wine made in the new cellar located in Adong Village. 50% new oak for ageing.
