Lunch and Wine Tasting at Sugarloaf Winery in Wales

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

At the end of March, I had a long weekend in Wales. On the first day of the visit, I had booked Sugarloaf Winery for lunch and a wine tasting. The weather was beautiful with full sun. Sugarloaf Winery is located near to Sugarloaf mountain outside Abergavenny in Monmouthshire, Wales.

I had the wine tasting, and this included the following: Chapel Down Flint Dry white, Y Fenni dry white, Sugarloaf Blush, and Deri Coch red. Three of the wines are from the winery, but Chapel Down is a replacement as they had run out of some of their wines.

I enjoyed the Y Fenni the most and had a separate glass of it.

I ordered a cheese board, and this came with a lot more than I expected - different types of Welsh cheeses, breads, crisps, chutney, salad, and olives.

Afterwards, I had a quick look at the vines. As it was the end of March, the vines were still in hibernation from the winter months.

I enjoyed the wines, and this was a nice little venue to enjoy some lunch and drink.
