This dinner presents a rare opportunity to follow the evolution of China's emerging industry through the wines of Xige Estate.
From the Helan Mountain foothills in Ningxia — a region often likened to Right Bank Bordeaux and high-altitude Mendoza — Xige Estate crafts wines of depth, structure, and remarkable longevity, redefining expectations of Chinese fine wine.
We are honoured to welcome Christelle Chene, Worldwide Brand Ambassador and International Affairs Director of Xige Estate, as host for the evening. Born in France and shaped by experience across the world’s great wine regions, Christelle will place China’s rise within a global fine-wine context, offering guests rare insight into one of the most compelling developments in modern wine.
