Global Wine Specialists Tour Helan Mountain Vineyards in Ningxia

China News Service reported that global wine research experts, industry representatives, and practitioners from countries including Brazil, Italy, and Spain toured vineyards and brewing workshops along the eastern foothills of Ningxia Helan Mountain. The visits took place during the 47th World Congress of Vine and Wine and the OIV Member States General Assembly held in Yinchuan, Ningxia, from October 12 to 16, deepening worldwide industry communication. The Ningxia Helan Mountain region is situated in a premier zone for wine grapes, featuring unique local conditions shaped by an arid climate with limited rainfall and substantial day-and-night temperature shifts. International Organization of Vine and Wine Brazilian representative Fernanda Rodrigues Spinelli noted that systematic management and the dry environment distinguish the area from traditional wine-producing zones worldwide. Tour participants also focused on the regional integration of artificial intelligence across vine planting, brewing, and vineyard management. Spinelli evaluated that Helan Mountain incorporates artificial intelligence across the entire cycle from cultivation to harvesting, offering valuable reference points for raising efficiency and ensuring quality stability in global viticulture. International Organization of Vine and Wine vice president Luigi Moio stated that China possesses natural conditions for producing premium wine, with product quality improving every year. Moio noted that the current focus is marketing so global wine enthusiasts discover the region.
