James Suckling 88 Points:
“A very fruity malbec with some jammy blackberries, purple fruit, dried lychee and violets. Medium-bodied on the palate with juicy fruit and soft tannins followed by a simple, slightly herbaceous finish. Very smoothly rendered without any hard edges. Drink now.” –Tasted on Nov 21, 2022

Xige Estate N28 Malbec 2022
Ningxia, China
Originally from South of France, Malbec has found fame in Argentina. Located in the Ningxia Helan Mountain Wine Region that bares a common high altitude with Mendoza, Xige Estate has foreseen the great potential of this variety and planted it for the first time in the Region on a large scale. Even with its current young vines, this variety has already bloomed with infinite charm in the Helan Mountain Region, and will most definitely shine greater in the future.
It shows charming fragrant orchid lily aromas followed by layers of violet and rose. On the palate, it is smooth with fine persistent tannins, you will be enchanted by its delightful and graceful style.
