According to wine experts, the high quality of Phu Le wine depends on four main factors; the first is the yeast; the second is the water of the area. It can be said that Phu Le wine can only be made from the water under these villages, so that other regions even nearby simply cannot produce wine with the same quality. Another factor is the special variety of rice in Phu Le, which has a higher than usual gluten content. The last element is the special equipment that is used to make the wine. The combination of these four factors makes the wines of Phu Le the finest to be had in Vietnam.
