Ao Yun

In 2013, Moet Hennessy planted Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot---varieties typical of a Bordeaux-style blend---and Syrah vines in Adong, a village on the foothills of the Himalayas in Yunnan Province. The area sits in the shadow of the Meili Mountain range which rises to 6740 meters. They named their new enterprise Ao Yun, which means flying above clouds, a reference to the high-altitude region. A good storyteller.
