Glyndwr Dry White 2011

Another good Welsh wine!! — 3 years ago

Fonseca

Guimaraens Vintage Port Blend 1997

Rich and mouthfilling, grapey but not raisiny, dark fruits and subtle spice, delightful nose advertising the flavors to come, a tad bit of alcohol on the finish but that’s my fault—I was so eager to drink this beauty that I chose not to decant first. I had the 1995 vintage and it tasted amazingly fresh for a 26-year old bottle. Paired with a flavorful French blue, Fourme d’Ambert, and a Welsh Cheddar, with good bread, toasted walnuts and fig preserves. Bliss. — 5 years ago

Woodlands

Alma May Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Wine No. 8 in the field of 8 Cabernets from the 2009 vintage tasted blind and it proved to be the consensus Winner by a narrow margin over the Les Forts. I loved this and the Palmer 8 years ago at the Cape Mentelle tasting and they remain stunning wines. A wonderful perfume of red flowers, plums, and earth. Medium to Full Bodied with great length. Two of the tasters, long time wine professional, Ken Gargett and Dr Mark Welsh ( head of the Chevaliers in Australia) each gave this wine 98 points. This was Margaret River at its best. Bravo Woodlands and the Watson Family!! — 6 years ago

I still have to post some random wines brought by the guests - some of which were stellar. Me being the host provided the 8 Cabernets tasted blind.

Concha y Toro

Diablo Dark Valle del Maule Red Blend

The welsh would call it Lush - it’s full of great flavour and is deep in currants and vanilla overtones.
Good legs and stands out. Impressed.

Whisky burns a bit but is very smooth — 5 years ago

White Castle Vineyard

Reserve Pinot Noir

Blackberry rambles, country lanes. This Welsh wonder took me out to Septembers in my youth, with the aromas of rip fruit. Smooth, easy drinking, just what the doctor ordered. — 5 years ago

That's correct. The English call it chateauneuf de Peppa pig.

Raats

Angel's Selection Chenin Blanc

A good solid white wine. Had what I refer to as an initial zing on the palate but after a couple of sips this subsided to more of a general tangy acidity. Flavour lingers long after a sip and generally very pleasant. Consumed with pork and Welsh cheddar sausages, herbed new potatoes and carrots and they worked okay together but found the wine more enjoyable solo than with the meal. — 7 years ago

Lindstrom Wines

Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Great start to our long weekend in Napa. Lindstrom is made by Celia Welsh, a superstar winemaker in Napa. A great nose of bluefruit and spice. On the palate I get really nice flavors of blueberries, dark currants, cocoa and baking spices. The tannins are ultra-sleek and very nicely integrated with the acidity. This wine is very drinkable today but most likely ages for another decade. Paired nicely with our Porterhouses. — 8 years ago

The DYFI Distillery

Pollination Gin 2018

Brought this gin back from Aberystwyth, the town on the Welsh coast where Prince Charles studied the language before becoming the Prince of Wales. This one is spicy and piney. Reminds me of a Welsh version of St. George's Terroir Gin. Enjoying it over a bit of ice. — 6 years ago

Le Chiantigiane

Da Capogiro Montepulciano d'Abruzzo

Not bad at all for a medium-full bodied red wine that pairs well with Welsh/ creamy cheddar for its price point — 8 years ago
