TAIR GAFR Gafr Wen 2024 Welsh White Wine 75cl

A wonderfully expressive Welsh white wine from the Vale of Glamorgan, made from Orion grapes by Tair Gafr Wines near Cowbridge. Whole bunches are gently pressed, with spontaneous fermentation using native yeasts and maturation in a previously used Chardonnay barrel. Fresh lemon, green asparagus and subtle peppercorn lead into grapefruit, gooseberry and lemon balm on the palate. Light-bodied, crisp and gently rounded, it is a lovely match for charcuterie, pâté and aromatic dishes.
