𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟.

We're hosting something special on 1st October and we can't wait to share it with you.

Join us at 242 Penarth Road from 6.30pm as we taste our way through four estates of Familia Fernández Rivera, hosted by Juan Jose Tarud.

Expect big, bold Ribera del Duero character throughout the evening, with a proper moment given to Dehesa La Granja — one of the family's newer estates and already turning heads for how it's redefining what a modern Rivera red can taste like.

We'll also be pouring from Condado de Haza, El Vínculo, and of course the estate that put this family on the map internationally: Tinto Pesquera.

If you know your Ribera del Duero, you know this is a rare chance to taste across an entire family portfolio in one room, guided by someone who knows these wines inside out.

📍 242 Penarth Road, Cardiff
📅 Thursday 1st October, from 6.30pm
🎟️ £25pp - https://www.finewinesdirectuk.com/shop/familia-fernandez-rivera-tasting/

No physical tickets will issued, however you will receive an email notification of your order and will be added to a list of attendees.

He's usually too modest to let us post his good reviews, but we're doing it anyway!

We're an independently run wine shop, and our customers are pivotal to our success — so when we get feedback like this, we like to share it. It's the kind of thing we hear regularly about:

👉Our wine tasting events
👉Corporate team building sessions
👉The way the team supports and engages with customers, in-store and online

Here's one that landed while Jonathan wasn't looking:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jonathan was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and approachable, making everyone feel comfortable — even those of us who are complete novices when it comes to wine... Jonathan's professionalism, expertise and passion for wine truly made our team tasting a memorable and enjoyable experience." — 𝑱𝒐𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒆 𝑵𝒖𝒘𝒂𝒓, 𝑻𝒓𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒑𝒊𝒍𝒐𝒕

Thanks, Joanne — and to everyone who takes the time to leave us feedback.

On Thursday 18th September, walkers will be lacing up for a beautiful evening loop around Cardiff Bay — all in memory of loved ones and in support of hospice care right here in Cardiff.

We're proud to be supplying the bubbles for finishers again this year, so every walker gets a glass of something sparkling to toast their achievement (and their memories) once they cross the line. It's one of our favourite events to be part of each year, and we can't wait to be part of the celebrations.

Fancy joining in? You can choose a 5km or 10km route, walk at your own pace, and every penny raised goes towards City Hospice's care for local families.

Registration and full details are on their website. 👉 https://www.cityhospice.org.uk/get-involved/upcoming-events/sparkle-walk-2026/

See you there? 🥂

Jon and Emilio are feeling rather trendy as they try the Jolie Laide Pinot Gris from California,

The winemakers don't grow their own grapes, they buy in the fruit every year - so you'll never know what you get from year to year.

Cheers to nice surprises 🍷
