More About The Winery

Born into a Chaozhou fine tea family with roots dating back to 1958, the two brothers grew up immersed in tradition, learning the art of tea-making from their father and working side by side from a young age. In 2008, their journey took a transformative turn as they ventured into the world of wine, studying deeply across various regions and forming lasting bonds with mentors and peers along the way.

Their quest led them through the vast landscapes of the Yangtze and Mekong valleys, and ultimately into the remote, little-known villages of the Himalayan plateau.There, driven by a desire to uncover a terroir destined for greatness, they found a place where rivers, glaciers, ancient cultures, soils, and climate converge in harmony. In this sacred interplay between heaven and earth, they discovered not only an exceptional terroir—but also the fulfillment of a calling long felt in their hearts.
