Wine with a passport

China's giant Changyu winery is ready to change the glo bal reputation of Chinese wines, making a big splash in Europe with vintages from its Ningxia chateau, Mike Peters reports.
Barrel No 1 is almost chocolaty, softer than any of the others. Barrel No 2 is more macho, the flavor long and spicy.
"Too much, of course," says consulting winemaker Lenz Moser from Austria, who was in the Ningxia Hui autonomous region for a barrel tasting last fall. "But it will age well, getting smoother while adding 'power'."
