Yantai Study Tour

Spring is approaching, and the Qingming holiday is also quietly coming. The three-day mini vacation is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to relax and feel the breath of spring. We have also welcomed the long-awaited Yantai region study tour course, stepping into this vineyard on the coastline in the early spring. The Yantai region is a bold stroke in the Chinese wine industry. Here, we immerse ourselves in the mountains and seas, delve into the vineyards, step into the brewing workshops, visit the oak barrel factories, and taste the excellent Chinese wines cultivated by the hilly terroir. We also experienced the gifts of the sea, the wonderful feeling of pairing seafood with wine. Moreover, we gained friendships from all over the country. At the Changyu Castel Winery, guided by the winemaker, we tasted Cabernet Gernischt, Viognier, and Chardonnay, three different grape varieties of fine wines. The winemaker took the 'fresh' wine directly from the oak barrels, and the students tasted it beside the barrels, communicating face-to-face with the winemaker, for a full experience~
