December 2011
Another successful evening at the Ystrad Mynach wine club, where we explored a number of wines from Portugal.
The first was a crisp, light and refreshing wine from the Vinho Verde region called Sogrape Quinta de Azevedo 2010 £7.29 from Waitrose. Exhibiting classic vinho verde characteristics with attractive citrus and apples notes and would be ideal with seafood. This was followed by another white wine called Monte Velho 2010 £10.99 from Spirited Wines. A much more richer and dense wine that is quite different in style to the vinho verde. The wines are reviewed in detail later on in the website..
The website is currently in the process of being redesigned and will also feature a link to the Ystrad Mynach Wine Club on Facebook. Until the next reviews, keep your wine glass full.

So why another site? click here to read more >>
