New Year Wine（燕归来）

Key words:

Classification:

New Year Wine

Vineyard Region : Ningxia

Grape Variety : 100% Syrah

Fermentation & Aging :

Since the early days of Grace Vineyard, we've been committed to crafting distinctive expressions of our journey. In 2023, we expanded into whisky distillation, and last year we began bringing both traditions together. Now in its second year, this release sees about 65% of the wine finished in bourbon casks—slightly more than the 2024 edition—adding a layered dimension and unique character to the profile.

Alc : 15.0%vol

Tasting Note :

This Syrah reflects the character of fruit grown in a moderately warm climate, showing abundant red and blue fruit tones, lifted by the classic note of black pepper. About 65% of the wine was matured in bourbon casks—a mix of first and second fill—bringing pronounced layers of caramel and vanilla to the bouquet.
On the palate, the fruit core is generous and textured, with moderate fullness. The caramel notes from the cask are reinforced across the palate, weaving seamlessly with the fruit profile. Tannins are firm yet balanced, and the finish is satisfying and persistent, leaving impressions of dark fruit, spice, and sweet oak tones.

Tasting Date : December 2025

Chinese New Year is a special time for us at Grace Vineyard, as we contemplate the snowy vineyards surrounded by the warmth of family and friends. In celebration and thanks, we want to let our friends join us in tasting the new vintage, almost like an invitation to a movie preview.

Each new vintage will be accompanied by an ancient song or poem that holds a special meaning for us. Hopefully through these beautiful words, and a connection to the new vintage, we can connect to the history and present, celebrating this festive time of year.
