Description

IN BOND

Owned by LVMH and managed by Jean-Guillaume Prats (formerly of Cos d'Estournel), Ao Yun is made in one of the most remote locations in the world for wine. Translated as "flying above the clouds", the vineyards lie 2500 metres above sea level, a five hour drive from the town of Shangri-La. The winery has been built in the village of Adong, where they have had to install their own road access and electricity on arrival. The vineyards, planted with 95% Cabernet and 5% Merlot, are farmed organically and worked by hand and yak - they are too remote for tractors to reach. The high altitude allows for the grapes to ripen in very high UV levels over a long period given the dry weather. Total production is 2000 cases with half of that going directly to the Chinese market, leaving just 1000 cases for the rest of the world.
