Overview:
A rare tasting of Chinese fine wine shaped by altitude, culture, and the story that led LVMH to Ao Yun.
Some wine regions are best understood not only through taste, but through the world that gives them shape.
This event offers a more immersive introduction to Shangri-La — a landscape of altitude, craftsmanship and cultural depth that has helped define one of the most compelling chapters in contemporary Chinese fine wine. It is also a closer look at the story behind Ao Yun: why LVMH spent four years searching before choosing Shangri-La, and how vineyards rising from 2,200 to 2,600 metres came to produce a wine of such rarity and distinction.
For this special edition in Singapore, we bring together four exceptional partners — across wine, hospitality, travel and cultural storytelling — to shape one shared experience.
Together, we bring wine, hospitality, place, and cultural storytelling into a single immersive encounter.
Over the course of this two-hour immersion, we will guide you through Shangri-La from two complementary perspectives: the wine itself, and the wider world around it — its land, altitude, food culture, people and stories.
Led by Joseph of WineKool and Sylvia Yang, Founder of Bespoke Summer, the afternoon is designed not simply as a tasting, but as a richer way of entering the region.
* Three premium Chinese wines with a combined bottle value of over S$500
* Curated bites inspired by Yunnan and Shangri-La, created to echo the flavours, ingredients and spirit of the region
* A deeper understanding of why LVMH chose Shangri-La, and what makes this one of the world‘s most distinctive high-altitude wine landscapes
* A richer encounter with the people and place behind the bottle, through insights from both wine and travel perspectives
* A blind tasting and shared conversation, designed to make the afternoon more vivid, social and memorable
* Exclusive attendee privileges and a surprise gift from the region
* A wider invitation into the world of Shangri-La itself — not only as a wine region, but as a living landscape that can be experienced more deeply, including through travel.
