The winery is producing the territory's first ever 'Made in Hong Kong' label with 100,000 bottles produced to date which are sold for 30-35 USD per bottle. The grapes are imported from the US and Italy frozen where they are pressed, fermented, aged and bottled after 18-24 months. The business has met with a lot of success as the wine industry blooms around Asia.
