Kanaan, established in 2011, is the passion project of Fang Wang, nicked named ‘Crazy Fang’ for her dream of starting a winery from scratch with no prior experience. The winery is in Ningxia, at the foot of the Helen Mountains and the name refers to the ‘land of milk and honey’. Kanaan is unique in that Fang makes Riesling, a tribute to her time in Germany. Her Bordeaux blend reds are precise, ripe, with bright acidity and silky tannins. The quality of her wines is an excellent example of the potential for Ningxia as a wine region.
