With sugar content as high as 20 degrees, it is highly favored by consumers in Beijing, Tianjin, Liaoning, Hebei, and other areas. Experts and merchants alike praise it as the “Number One Rose Fragrance Grape Township in China,” and it serves as the raw material base for the Tianjin Dynasty Winery, a Sino-French joint venture. In 1994 and 1998, it ranked among the top in the renowned, special, and high-quality product evaluations organized by the Grape Branch of the Chinese Agricultural Society.
