Ao Yun Description
Ao Yun Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable wine that transports your senses to the breathtaking high-altitude vineyards of China's Yunnan province. This vintage showcases a masterful blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Syrah, and 2% Petit Verdot, expertly crafted to deliver a complex, elegant, and unforgettable experience.
As you pour this wine, the bouquet comes alive, revealing a symphony of aromas that capture the wine's intensity and sophistication. The glass design further emphasizes the wine's silky, velvety texture, enticing you to take a sip and explore its depths.
On the palate, the Ao Yun glass harmoniously balances fruit, minerality, and freshness, allowing you to fully appreciate the wine's intricate flavor profile. You'll delight in the well-integrated notes of ripe blackcurrant, plum, and cherry, accented by hints of spice and earthy minerality, all wrapped in a subtle touch of oak, thanks to the use of fewer new barrels in this vintage.
The Ao Yun Cabernet Sauvignon culminates in a seamless, harmonious, and long finish that leaves you yearning for more. The optimal ripening conditions and meticulous blending process of this vintage ensure that each terroir contributes its unique character to create a truly exceptional wine.
Elevate your dining experience by pairing this captivating Cabernet Sauvignon with succulent roasted or grilled meats, like a tender filet mignon or herb-crusted lamb. The wine's depth and complexity also beautifully complement rich, savory dishes such as mushroom risotto or truffle-infused pasta.
Wine Advocate: 93 Points
77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc, 4% Syrah and 2% Petit Verdot. It is deep ruby in color and has lifted herbaceous bramble and red and black plum fruit with subtle toasted new oak notes. There is significant concentration with robust alcohol but lifting acidity and ripe, fine-grained tannins. Very juicy, vinous and young!
