James Suckling 90 Points:
"Lemon grass, pear, green mango and tropical fruit. Very fresh, pure, attractive and energetic palate with honest crunch and excellent drinkability. Linear texture and a fresh, concise finish. A blend of Italian riesling, ugni blanc and a touch of chenin blanc. Drink now, while this is fresh and crisp." --Tasted on Nov 18, 2020

西鴿酒莊成立於2017年,是中國最令人興奮的新興葡萄酒項目之一。西鴿酒莊是一個全新的、現代化的釀酒廠,擁有超過1300公頃的葡萄園,其中有1000多公頃都種植著擁有20年成熟期的葡萄藤。這鞏固了他們的快速成功,成為中國同行中領先的優質葡萄酒品牌之一。西鴿酒莊由張言志擔任首席釀酒師創立,他曾是張裕酒業的釀酒師。與他一起的是克里斯泰爾·舒涅(Christelle Chene),她出生於勃艮第,曾在中國擔任出口銷售總監,並致力於向全世界推廣寧夏葡萄酒以及中國葡萄酒。

西鴿酒莊的葡萄酒在國際上引起了關注,中國國家主席習近平在會見4月訪華的法國總統馬克龍時,選擇了西鴿赤霞珠與蛇龍珠混釀的葡萄酒。在此之前,西鴿酒莊也已經在國際葡萄酒界佔據了一席之地,當時酒莊向英國出口了價值12.4萬英鎊的一批葡萄酒,打破了寧夏單批葡萄酒出口價值最高的記錄。

James Suckling 給予90分評價:
檸檬草、梨子、青芒果和熱帶水果的味道。口感非常新鮮、純淨、吸引人且具有活力,帶有坦誠的口感和出色的口感。線性質地和清新簡潔的收尾。這是一款由意大利雷司令、烏涅布蘭和少量陳年白葡萄釀製的混合酒。現在就可以享用,因為這款酒保持了其新鮮和清爽的特點。 ——於2020年11月18日品嚐
