Jeannie Cho Lee MW, the first Asian obtaining the MW wine qualification and wine master with the book of “Asian Palate” published tasting notes in 2013 to appraise 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon of Chateau Changyu Moser XV:

"Different from many Chinese cabernet sauvignon and merlot blending red wine, this wine has a beautiful flavor. It is in deep red, with strong aromas of blackberry and cherry. Solid tannin is retained under alcoholic strength of only 12.5%. It tastes like velvet. Soft tannins and flavor of oak indicate that aging technology is used wisely and prudently."
