The 9th edition of the ProWine Shanghai was held from 9-11 November 2021. Despite ongoing overseas travel restrictions, the three-day event took place as scheduled and welcomed over 15,000 trade visitors from Shanghai, Hainan, Guangdong, Fujian, Hubei and Tianjin.
The fair offered great opportunities for guests to explore and taste wines presented by exhibitors from 19 countries and regions, including the top-awarded wines from this year’s Decanter World Wine Awards.
The Decanter stand showcased 20 wines from France, Italy, Moldova and Chinese wine regions Xinjiang, Ningxia and Shandong for visitors to taste, including a diversity of styles ranging from white, rosé, red to sweet and fortified wines. The line-up consisted of one Gold, seven Silver and 14 Bronze medals and provided a comprehensive understanding of the quality of wines that DWWA recognised and rewarded.
Decanter also worked with China’s leading wine expert Li Demei, a DecanterChina.com columnist, associated professor of viticulture & oenology at Beijing University for Agriculture, to present a masterclass that featured some of the top winners from DWWA 2021, including the first Chinese dry white wine that won a Platinum medal at DWWA – Château Changyu, Afip A8 Chardonnay, Miyun, China 2018.
More than 60 Chinese wine professionals attended the fully-booked masterclass, which explored the judging process and scoring system of the Decanter World Wine Awards and highlighted nine of the single-varietal white wines from this year’s competition, including:
