Craftsmanship & Story

Situated high on Shanxi’s rugged Loess Plateau, Chateau Rongzi cultivates vineyards between 1,100 and 1,300 metres above sea level where intense sunlight and dramatic diurnal temperature variation create wines of freshness, purity and aromatic intensity. Founded in 2007 by Zhang Wenquan, the estate gained international recognition under the consultancy of Jean-Claude Berrouet, the legendary former winemaker of Château Pétrus. Combining advanced technology with meticulous vineyard management, Chateau Rongzi continues to showcase the growing sophistication of China’s emerging fine wine regions.

Special Features

Chateau Rongzi Cabernet Sauvignon 0% is produced using the estate’s innovative ultra-fast low-temperature vacuum de-alcoholisation technology, carefully designed to preserve the original colour, aroma, texture and layered flavour profile of the wine. Grown on high-altitude vineyards between Latitude 35° and 36° North — comparable to renowned wine regions in France, Italy and California — the grapes develop exceptional freshness and aromatic clarity. The result is an elegant alcohol-free wine with vibrant fruit purity, balanced sweetness and the distinctive freshness of Shanxi’s mountain terroir.

Given the estate’s reputation for innovation, precision winemaking and refined fruit expression, this de-alcoholised Cabernet Sauvignon is expected to attract increasing international interest as the premium alcohol-free category continues to grow globally.

Served lightly chilled, this vibrant alcohol-free Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with fragrant Sichuan dishes, smoky grilled meats and gently spiced Thai or Indonesian cuisine, where its lively acidity and soft sweetness refresh the palate between bites. Rich berry fruit and delicate floral notes also complement sticky glazed pork, aromatic duck dishes and warming Indian curries, creating a beautifully balanced and inviting dining experience.
