Stefan Neumann MS, Master Sommelier of the World, shared: "We had about 40 guests in the Gloria Room at Mandarin Oriental today, and today we had about 40 guests at our tasting, which was actually the full range of Changyu Longyu wines to compete with the best wines in the world. It was a great tasting, we got very positive feedback from the guests who participated in the tasting, great venue, and I'm really looking forward to having another tasting like this, thank you so much! ”

Valeria Rodriguez, Head of Fine Wine at Bibendum, said: "It was an amazing tasting. We tasted the one-of-a-kind dragon oracle made from Cabernet Sauvignon. We also tasted the dry red made by Longyu Winery. When we compare the world's famous wines with blind tastings, I would like to say that Longyu Cabernet Sauvignon is no less than inferior, and it is really an eye-opening experience, and the potential of Chinese wines is huge, and in front of these absolutely high-quality world wines, [Longyu Cabernet Sauvignon] can also stand out. ”

Ruchira Neotia, Consultant at Wine & Spirits, said: "This is my first experience with the Dragon's Domain. Personally, I think this wine is fantastic, with a very special spice profile, and this flavor probably comes from the winery's winemaking process as well as the Chinese Ningxia grapes themselves. This is a very interesting wine. ”
