April 2012
A number of quality wines tasted came from a company called Bodegas Terras Gauda. The first white was called Abadio San Campo 2011 £9.69 which hails from the Rias Baixas region in Galicia. Made with 100% Albarino grapes displaying citrus fruits, pineapple and lemon - a nice crisp white.
The second white was also from Bodegas Terras Gauda called La Mar 2010 £18. The wine is made from Albarino, Caino Blanco and Loureira grapes and expresses floral, peachy and some honey flavours. The third white was called La Sobrosita 2010 £7.49 from Marks and Spencer, hailing from the Terra Alta region of South Catalonia and made with Garnacha Blanca grapes. Very aromatic with spicy melon and pear with a refreshing finish.
As usual, see the reviews page for more information on these and other wines.
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 >>
