Awards, Ratings & Reviews

93/100 — James Suckling · 2023 Vintage · Tasted: Oct 2025
“A floral and peppery nose of violets and fresh blue and purple fruit. Spicy, with a medium to full body and fine-grained tannins. Spot-on balance with good length. Drink or hold.”

About This Wine

Silver Heights Jiayuan Marselan 2023 is produced from 100% Marselan.

The grapes are hand picked and fermented using only wild yeasts in neutral barrels.

The wine is aged in 100% new French oak for 12 months before bottling and filtered using the traditional Bordeaux method.

Producer Notes

Smokey and savoury - lap cheong, cured meat, cumin, star anise and white pepper.

A shiso leaf / spring onion freshness balanced by toasty oak.

Medium bodied with firm tannins.

About the Producer

Silver Heights is a family-owned winery in Ningxia, founded in 2007 by Emma Gao and her father, committed to making artisanal wines that demonstrate craftsmanship, integrity and passion.

All wines use indigenous yeasts, minimal filtration, and minimal sulphites.

After completing a National Diploma in Oenology in 2002, and completing several vintages across Bordeaux, including two years at Calon Segur, Emma Gao returned to Ningxia to develop her family’s new vineyard into a world class estate.

Emma Gao proved her worth quickly - achieving the highest score from a Chinese winery in Jancis Robinson’s 2010 review. A few years later, Silver Heights was featured in the “World Atlas of Wine” as the highest quality representation of the Eastern Helan Foothills appellation.

In 2015, Silver Heights were finally able to make their wines from 100% estate fruit, which they began to farm biodynamically and organically in 2018 using western philosophies and the Chinese principles of Jieqi. In 2023, the family achieved Demeter certification - the first Chinese winery to do so.
