Vietnam — wine

Dalat Wine Region

Vietnam's only significant wine region, centered on the highland city of Đà Lạt in Lâm Đồng Province at 1,500 meters elevation. The 'City of Eternal Spring' receives its name from the mild year-round climate — 18–25°C with distinct dry and rainy seasons — that enables viticulture in a country otherwise too tropical for grape growing. The Dalat Winery produces wines from Cardinal and Muscadelle varieties, while Vang Đà Lạt has become Vietnam's most recognized wine brand, served throughout the country's restaurants and hotels.
