MING CELLAR DOUBLES UP


27 May 2011

Innovative, award-winning Hotel, Langham Place, Mongkok, Hong Kong, has added to its repertoire of prestigious accolades; this time now the first hotel to be certified worldwide for the 'Provision of Wine Storage Services for Retailing & Catering' and for the ‘Provision of Commercial Wine Storage Service’, by the Hong Kong Quality Assurance Agency.

A pioneer in wine storage within the hospitality industry, Langham Place, Mongkok places great importance on the temperature and humidity controlled conditions in which it stores its vintage and younger wines for Ming Cellar.

"In order to age and serve our wines in ideal conditions, all of which have been carefully cultivated and blended by their respective winemakers, our climatic temperature levels mirror the surrounds of natural caves and cellars in wine and champagne-making regions", Zachary Yu, the Hotel’s Wine Guy explains.

"Shifting wines from our storage facilities to Ming Cellar in the best possible conditions is paramount to controlling a wine’s aging process and our dedication to this minimises wine risks. Upon reaching Ming Cellar, guests are assured of the wine’s storage reliability and may experience first-hand the wine room, smell and touch terroir samples and grape varieties, and pick their preferred wine, bringing them closer to the true en vineyard experience", describes Shaun Campbell, General Manager for Langham Place, Mongkok.

Cellaring over 450 noteworthy labels including French, Italian, Portuguese and South African top producers, as well as new, up and coming rising stars on the wine scene, Ming Cellar continues to bring guests wine experiences through its appreciation tastings, pairing dinners and ultimately, enhances the guest’s journey in wine discovery.
