Women are born to be beautiful, like an angel. The “Princess dream” deep in their heart will never fade with the passage of time. From ancient to modern times, both successful and intellectual women have some kind of fate with wine. The elegance of wine has produced many beautiful stories. Wine is also famous for its health keeping function. And it has become indispensable in the modern life of women.



  Wine is considered as an enchanting woman. According to the record of “Bible”, Noah, the survivor by taking the ark, is the first person to discover wine. His goat began to dance after eating overripe grapes, which made Noah have a great interest in making a fermented grape juice. Noah would certainly not have thought that this “non-distilled fermented grape juice” will be carried forward through generations, becoming a famous drink around the world.


   The magic of wine lies in mystery – it has an attractive color and mellow taste; but when swaying gently in the cup, it looks like a Latin gril dressed in red dress, enchanting and charming.
