Puchang Vineyard is a renowned winery located in the Turpan Valley of the Xinjiang Autonomous Region in China. Established in 1975, the winery was acquired in 2008 by Hong Kong entrepreneur K. K. Cheung, who shifted its focus towards organic wine production.
Puchang Vineyard stands out for cultivating indigenous and rare grape varieties such as Beichun, Saperavi, Rkatsiteli, and Chinese Muscat, which reflect the unique terroir of the Turpan Valley. Thanks to the extreme desert climate, the vineyards are almost entirely pest-free, allowing for organic farming without the use of pesticides or herbicides.
