DRINK OF THE WEEK
15th September 2025
Finest Floreal
Tesco £8.00
Drinker Rating 89
I suppose it's part of my job description to get you folk to try new things - so here's one and for me it was new too until about 6 months ago.
Floreal is a new grape variety a hybrid first listed in 2018 and one of its key attributes is that it's really disease resistant meaning it needs less intervention in the vineyard and therefore is overall better for the planet.
That's all very well but absolutely no use unless it produces great tasting wine - and hooray! It does!
Light lemon scent and satsuma, fresh acidity and a wonderful mineral note too.
The more you sup, the more you save!
Cheers!
