O Produtor, tasting note published in February 28th 2022
The barrel aging has given this Changyu Moser Blanc de Noir the harmony and complexity expected of a world-class white wine. Elevating the wine’s flavor profiles to a whole new level – a new star is born. To be compared to the great whites of Burgundy, the top Austrian Grüner Veltliners, and world-class Chardonnays: full-bodied, lush, brimming with fruit, and a profusion of exotic flavors that linger on the palate and finish.
The world’s first Blanc de Noir Cabernet Sauvignon aged in French oak barrels!
What started as an experiment can now be enjoyed for the first time in the history of wine: a barrel-aged version of White Cabernet. We loved the stainless steel version of our Blanc de Noir Cabernet Sauvignon so much that we decided to age it in barrels.
After numerous tastings in the cellar, we became more and more confident that this wine would be truly spectacular – and indeed it is! All the characteristics of our other unoaked White Cabernet have been refined with subtle barrel aging for 12 months.
Early harvest of healthy grapes at 23 brix. Direct pressing of destemmed grapes to create a white Cabernet Sauvignon.
Aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels (Nadilie and Vicard), with a small proportion blended back into stainless steel.
Cultivation and blending under the close supervision of Lenz M. Moser (Head Winemaker at Château Changyu Moser XV), who spent the entire harvest period in Ningxia.

Chateau Changyu Moser XV
The principle idea of this château is the cooperation between CHANGYU as the pioneering premiere Chinese winery and the European/Austrian Moser Family: a challenging and exciting combination of Chinese emergence to the global wine world, aspiring to belong in the company of the world’s finest and of the European spirit for excellence of 15 generations in wine. Despite of all the difference in culture from two worlds, CHANGYU and Lenz M. Moser became partners 12 years ago and still share the same vision: being the first from China in going global and establish CHATEAU CHANGYU MOSER XV as the leading château from China.
