Velfrey Vineyard, Traditional Method Quality Sparkling Wine NV, 11%

A Welsh PGI sparkling wine from Pembrokeshire and a Top 100 UK Wines Winner, Velfrey NV is a traditional quality sparkling wine.

It has a lively pour and excellent clarity. On the nose it is floral with elderflower, pear and nectarine. On the palette, there is ripe peach with citrus fruit piercing through. There is some complexity and really good length. The traditional method (secondary fermentation in the bottle, followed by a period of ageing in contact with the yeast) provides a rich brioche-like savouriness. This is balanced by a nice refreshing acidity. In summary, a really excellent sparkling wine.

Velfrey is a family-run, low intervention vineyard situated on a sheltered south-facing site in the beautiful Pembrokeshire countryside. The vineyard extends to just over one hectare and has in excess of 4000 vines. The varieties are specially selected to thrive and ripen in our conditions producing wines of exceptional quality.
