The Region

Scenic Helan Mountain

Helan Mountain, in China’s western city of Ningxia, is 2,000 to 2,500 metres above sea level, and spans 200 kilometres from north to south. Helan is an ancient Mongolian word that means “beautiful horse”. The mountain is historically a divide between agriculturalism and nomadism. Our winery is named after the majestic mountain range.

The winery and vineyards are located on East Foothill of Helan Mountain on the 38 Northern Latitude. Sharing the same latitude as French Bordeaux, the region is also known as the “Bordeaux of the East” and a World Winery Golden Belt. The pristine environment is far from pollution in well-preserved nature that is increasingly popular with winemakers.
