The combination of Australian wine-making traditions and Chinese commercial power has come to fruition, with a winery in the Yala Valley, Victoria, being named the best winery of the year in Australia.
James Halliday, a famous Australian wine critic, named (Seville Estate), a 12-hectare Sihuai winery, as Australia`s 2019 "(Winery of the Year). Of the year" in the 2019 Khalid Wine partner Award (Halliday Wine Companion). Since 1986, the famous Australian wine critic James? Khalid (James Halliday) publishes the Australian Wine Guide every year, ranking and publishing the top 100 wines of the year.
Sihuai Chateau was by a man named Peter in 1972. McMahon Peter McMahon`s local general practitioner and his wife Marguerite Margaret, who first made wine in his backyard, are a rare achievement in the small winery. The couple made up their minds to plant the (cabernet) and (riesling) grapes of exceptional quality (shiraz), Cabernet Sauvignon in the cool valley and slammed the skeptics.
Their grandson Dylan. McMahon Dylan McMahon, now chief winemaker, owns the vineyard by Mr. Yang, a businessman from Guangxi province in China, who runs a number of thriving wine chains in China. Together, the two benefit the gold-not a formal combination of interests, but a close partnership like a tangled vines.
As Australian wine exports to China have recently breached the A $1 billion mark, Mr. McMahon`s collaboration with Mr. Yang may represent a blueprint of business models that other vineyards can emulate in the future. That is, rely on Australia`s local wine-making technology and offshore capital to produce award-winning wine.
Yesterday, as they entered the vineyard, Mr. Yang spoke of his responsibility for the founder and his heartfelt joy in winning the winery of the year. "I feel happy and excited, but I also feel a strong sense of responsibility, carrying on with the past, the obligation to continue."
"I am wholeheartedly committed to improving the quality of the wine. Specifically, I appreciate Dylan and his team`s idea of wine-making, the idea of creating elegant and delicate wines. I share the same belief that wine should truly reflect the vineyard and cool climate. "
Mr. McMahon, remembering his grandfather`s decision to plant Silas, Cabernet Sauvignon and Riesling Grapes, despite suspicion, said: "he was fighting to prove everyone else wrong. "now we are still brewing the same varieties as we used to be. Our wine is a wine bred from a cool climate, and this is a general description, more deeply, that a wine with a cool climate can reflect both an amazing taste and a rich fruity flavor. It retains this beautiful elegance and delicacy. The essence lies in elegance and refinement.
"and really respect the grape variety and the right place to grow it. If the grape variety is naturally mellow, then the wine should be mellow. As a result, Cabernet Sauvignon has a hint of spice and some lingering flavours that will never be eroded by sweet fruit, alcohol and high concentrations of wine. "
Mr. Yang`s Chinese clients highly approve of their wine, but are still learning as they drink. "Chinese wine lovers are no different from wine lovers in the rest of the world and are keen to pursue the best and most beautiful," said Australia, which produces some of the best wines in the world.
However, when it comes to salad / sira, Chinese consumers tend to have a bit of a simple and rude stereotype about it. That is, high degree, strong taste, a little rough. That`s why I`m proud of Dylan and his team showing off the other side of Australian wine, which has hardly ever been shown to Chinese wine enthusiasts before. "
