[Silver Heights Emma's Reserve 2021 (愛瑪私家收藏紅葡萄酒)]

Robert Parker rating: 95/100

Silver Heights Vineyard was founded by Gao Lin and his daughter Gao Yuan in 2007, and is currently managed by Gao Yuan.Currently, Gao Yuan serves as both the owner and winemaker of the winery. She studied winemaking in Bordeaux, France, and obtained the French National Winemaker Diploma. She also interned for a period at the renowned 1855 Third Growth estate, Chateau Calon Segur.

The vineyard of the winery is located on the eastern foothills of the Helan Mountains, at an altitude of 1,200 meters, in the golden grape-growing zone at 38° north latitude.The climate in this region is exceptionally dry, with ample sunlight and rare rainfall. The temperature difference between day and night can reach up to 15 ºC, which is conducive to the accumulation of sugars and phenolic compounds in the grapes, allowing them to maintain a high level of acidity even when fully ripe.The main soil types in the vineyard are clayey-calcareous soil, sandy gravel soil, and pebbles, with low organic matter content, making it relatively barren.Due to the cold winter, to prevent the grapevines from dying, the winery will use the method of burying the vines. They will be pressed down to the ground and buried 30 centimeters underground to prevent the vines and root system from freezing.When spring arrives, the soil is dug up to allow the grapevines to return to their original state.The winery adheres to the concept of organic farming, strictly controlling the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides during the grape cultivation process, and implementing meticulous manual management for each grapevine.The main grape varieties planted in the vineyard are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Riesling.
