Bordeaux in China: Discover Iconic Sino-French Wineries

Located along the same 40°N latitude as Bordeaux, Huailai’s golden grape belt is where easts meets west. Here, the region's dramatic day-night temperature swings and unique microclimate shaped by the Guanting Reservoir and surrounding Yan and Taihang Mountains create the perfect environment for the noble French varieties of grapes introduced to China by Domaine Franco-Chinois in 2001. This perfect balance of terroir extends ripening, concentrates sugars, and builds elegant layers of flavor, ranking China’s very first Marselan and Petit Manseng among the best in the world, with a refined acidity and unmatched style.

In this exclusive Wynn journey, explore Domaine Franco-Chinois and Canaan Winery, the sister vineyards who have won accolades at the Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards for three consecutive years, sweeping 2026 with six gold medals. Discover their advanced winemaking facilities, descend into their modern cellars, and savor exquisite wines that masterfully blend various grapes with distinctive Chinese terroir. Paired with Beijing classics such as succulent roasted lamb, mutton hotpot, and more, these fragrant and soulful vintages hallmark the unforgettable harmony of wine and cuisine.
