Checheng Winery Introduction
Checheng Winery is located in Checheng Village, Shui Li Township, Nantou, and officially opened on April 20, 2003. The main members consist of farmers primarily engaged in plum cultivation – the third class of fruit tree production and marketing under the Shui Li Township Farmers' Association. With technical guidance from the Ministry of Agriculture, the winery transformed from traditional agriculture to a form of refined agriculture. At the beginning of its establishment, the original factory site was severely damaged by Typhoon Tashi in late July 2001, resulting in the destruction of facilities and products by landslides. There were considerations to abandon the winery project. Ultimately, with the assistance of the Shui Li Township Farmers' Association, the investment scale was expanded from just the members of the third fruit tree production and marketing class to include plum farmers within the Shui Li Township, enabling the establishment of "Checheng Winery" in the renowned Checheng community, known as the "Last Train Station" and "Secret Garden," while continuing the delightful flavors of the hometown of plums. Peaceful, beautiful, and safe, it is surrounded by mountains and forests, with the continuously flowing Shui Li Creek in front and lush green hills behind.
