Not necessarily every family, it depends on the manufacturer and brand. The Tongyuanmeng wine industry I know is based on the local red tassel sorghum wheat and Chishui River. Brewing technology of "12978". "12978" refers to the whole production cycle of Dragon Boat Festival koji-making, Chongyang feeding, secondary feeding, eight koji-adding, nine distillation and seven wine-taking, which lasts for one year! The wine brewed in this way, after at least 3 years of storage and repeated blending, can achieve outstanding sauce flavor, delicate wine quality and lasting fragrance in empty cups.
