Legacy Peak Family Heritage 2022

From Legacy Peak in China’s Ningxia region, the Family Heritage 2022 is a refined Bordeaux-style blend led by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, sourced from the estate’s best high-altitude vineyards (1,100-1,200 meters) on the Helan Mountain’s eastern foothills, featuring gravelly, sandy-loam soils that impart exceptional concentration and structure. Hand-harvested grapes from the outstanding 2022 vintage—marked by ideal ripening conditions yielding rich yet balanced fruit—undergo meticulous sorting, cold soak, fermentation in temperature-controlled vats, and 20 months’ aging in French oak barrels (70% new) to foster integration and depth. As the pinnacle of Legacy Peak’s portfolio, this limited-production wine yields a deep garnet red with vibrant intensity and majestic aging potential.
