Very much an oasis in the middle of the desert, Puchang – located in Turpan Valley, China’s Xinjiang province - now comprises approximately 100 hectares of vineyards which produce up to 130,000 bottles each year. Puchang was first established in 1975. In 2008, Hong Kong business man, Mr. K.K. Cheung purchased the estate, giving it a new direction as one of the first organic wine producers in China. Puchang focuses on organic viticulture and winemaking with unwavering dedication and care under quality management. It also works with distinctive local grapes to present the taste of Xinjiang terroir. Thanks to the extreme desert climate, this land is almost entirely free of pests. Puchang is certified by ECOCERT as being organically maintained, which is an indication of its fine standard at the international level.
"Beichun is an unusual hybrid combining a native species of Chinese vine from Jilin province with the dark-skinned Muscat of Hamburg. The 2015 Beichun has a medium ruby appearance. The nose is reminiscent of Pinot Noir or, better still, Corvina with bright but sour red cherry, raspberry and strawberry fruit accompanied by a touch of violet. Medium-bodied with moderate coating and slightly chewy tannins, some lifting acidity and plenty of vibrant red fruit character with that violet note, the 2015 shows moderate length with a bright, juicy, but also herbal finish."

深紅寶石色，淺紫色。它有誘人的香氣，主要是紅色水果，玫瑰，其次是香草和肉桂香料。在口感上，它呈現出絲般柔滑和一致的質感，帶有成熟的紅色水果、幹覆盆子和枸杞的味道。回味柔和，酸度平衡。

與赤霞珠、黑品諾、梅洛等葡萄品種不同，北醇並沒有可以藉鑑的釀造方法。日復一日，當我們在不斷完善北醇釀造工藝的過程中，我們時刻提醒自己不要有所畏懼，勇於探索，另闢蹊徑；勇於創新，懷抱希望。
