The four-day event has attracted over 1,100 domestic and international guests, featuring 14 activities such as a winery and wine exhibition, an innovation competition, and an art biennial.
Making its China debut in 2018 in Beijing, the CMB has this year brought together nearly 400 international judges and over 7,000 wine samples, including a record number of entries from China, according to CMB Chairman Baudouin Havaux.
'This event opens a new era for the global visibility of the Chinese wine industry,' Havaux said.
He added that it is no coincidence the 32nd edition of the CMB is being held in Yinchuan, as it clearly reflects the growing strength of Chinese wine, especially that of Ningxia.

The region boasts a unique terroir for making top-class wine, with its prolonged sunshine and a cool, dry climate aiding the cultivation of grapes. After four decades of development, Ningxia has become China's largest wine-producing region. The eastern foot of Helan Mountain is widely regarded as a 'golden zone' for grape growing and high-end wine production.
By the end of 2024, Ningxia had more than 600,000 mu (around 40,000 hectares) of wine grape plantations and an annual wine output of 140 million bottles. Its wines are exported to over 40 countries and regions.

Jeanne Shaheen (D-New Hampshire) and John Cornyn (R-Texas) would require the administration to target Chinese 'entities and individuals' that have helped sustain the Russian defense industry despite enormous battlefield losses and widespread Western sanctions imposed since the start of the war.

The Best Way to See China? On Futuristic, Punctual, Very Fast Trains
As I rocketed out of Shanghai aboard a train at nearly 200 miles an hour, the speed reduced the trees outside my window to greenish blurs. I had the out-of-body sense that I was fast-forwarding my way through China. The ride felt decidedly more languid when I turned my attention from the window. A smartly uniformed attendant was passing out snack boxes, but I craved something more substantial and made my way to the Starbucks-equipped snack bar to order a cappuccino and soup dumplings.
