Wine Trail Wales

Wales is fast developing a reputation for wines of excellent quality. The hard work of dedicated viticulturists from Anglesey to Pembrokeshire and across to Monmouthshire is being rewarded with prestigious national and international awards, which have created headlines and put Wales on the world wine map.

Welsh vineyards produce around 100,000 bottles of wine each year and many welcome visitors for tours with tasting sessions as part of Wine Trail Wales. It’s a great way for viticulturists to share their passion and for visitors to learn about the complete winemaking process. Visit a vineyard and taste the quality.
