Lychee Sweet Wine

Why people make this wine

Lychee season is short, so Nourilo likes to put up a few bottles while the fruit is still around. After two or three months of steeping, the wine turns fragrant and mellow — a lovely gift to share with family and friends. In Chinese food tradition, lychee flesh steeped in wine is associated with warming the middle, lifting the energy, and gently nourishing the blood for a rosier complexion.
