MONDAY 27TH: Robb Merchant @ White Castle

Who can believe it’s already Monday of Welsh Wine Week? These days are flying by so quickly, and there are so many wines to get through. Today’s episode focused on one of the biggest names in the world of Welsh Wine. From their beginnings as a postman and nurse, Robb and Nicola Merchant have become figureheads of an entire industry. From their first plantings in 2009 to crowdfunding their own winery, White Castle have achieved incredible things.

 

Hear their story from Robb himself as he talks about those first vines, producing the UK’s first Cabernet Franc, and hopes and visions for the future.
