Wynn Signature presents Chinese wines to a global audience

As the Strategic Wine Partner of the Tatler Best Asia Pacific 2026, Wynn placed the Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards, an initiative under its exclusive lifestyle brand, Wynn Signature, at the heart of its participation. Through a series of curated experiences spanning the awards ceremony, welcome reception, celebratory party and the Tatler Best Takeover chef collaborations, Wynn showcased the remarkable progress and diversity of Chinese wines to the international hospitality and culinary community.

On October 22, the Tatler Best Asia Pacific 2026 Awards Ceremony convened more than 600 hospitality executives, key opinion leaders, members of the Tatler community and media representatives from over 25 cities across the Asia Pacific region.

Presenting the prestigious Best Sommelier Award at the ceremony, Ms. Linda Chen, President, Vice Chairman and Executive Director of Wynn Macau, Limited, remarked: "Few stories in the world of wine are as exciting today as the rise of Chinese wine. Across China's wine regions, a new generation of winemakers is redefining what is possible, combining innovation, craftsmanship and a deep respect for the land to create wines that are earning growing international recognition. As an international company deeply rooted in Macao, Wynn saw an opportunity to help tell that story to the world. Macao is uniquely positioned to connect China with the wider world. Through the Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards, we aim to celebrate China's finest wines with international standards and a global perspective. That is why our partnership with Tatler is especially meaningful. We share a belief that excellence deserves recognition and that Asia's most compelling stories deserve a place on the global stage."

At the welcome reception, Wynn featured a dedicated Chinese wine display area showcasing 26 wines that took home the highest honors at the 2026 Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards, highlighting the breadth of China's wine regions and grape varietals. To offer guests a hands-on journey of discovery, Wynn also presented a dedicated Chinese wine tasting experience featuring more than 20 premium Chinese wines. Representatives from five of China's leading wineries – Amethyard, Chateau Mihope, Chateau Zhong Fei, Devo Winery and Tian Ge Winery – were in attendance, sharing their award-winning wines with international industry professionals and introducing the rich diversity of China's wine regions and terroirs.
