The 2025 Spring Cardiff Wine Passport will be valid Sunday – Thursday only, running for six weeks from 16th March.

Each one entitles you to six glasses of wine from your own choice of ten brilliant city centre venues - Bar 44, Asador 44, Terra Mare, Bacareto, Daffodil, Curado Bar, Vermut, The Dead Canary, Nighthawks and Lab 22.

•  Terra Mare: brand new to the passport for 2025, are offering up two Venetian wines, paired with the mushroom arancini or their bruschetta with anchovies, Stracciatella and basil.

• Bar 44: A lively tapas bar in the heart of the city; Bar 44 will be offering a refreshing Cava or a glass of rosé as part of the passport, with the option to pair them with a couple of their classic and seasonal small plates.

  · Vermut: This cosy hole-in-the-wall bar specialises in the sale of Sherry, Vermouth, and wines from Montilla-Moriles; they have included two delicious Vermouths as past of the passport.

  · Asador 44: This restaurant serves impeccable ingredients cooked over an authentic Spanish grill; here you can opt to pair a glass of cava with a prawn bisque croqueta with charcoal mayonnaise, or a glass of Tempranillo with their beef tartare.

  · Curado Bar: A popular deli and pintxos bar in Westgate street; the passport offers a choice of two Spanish wines, with suggested pairings of classic Spanish croquetas, or Valencian salted almonds.

  · Nighthawks: This quirky wine bar opposite Cardiff castle has gained a cult following for its incredible grilled cheese sandwiches – on offer as the pairing to a delicious glass of crisp Romanian white wine, or a fruity Bulgarian red.

  · Lab 22:  This award-winning and eclectically styled cocktail bar is a favourite with late-night crowds, with a Portuguese white and an Australian red on offer to end the night.

  · The Dead Canary: This hidden speakeasy on Barrack Lane will offer two wine-based cocktails as part of the Cardiff Wine Passport; the White Lightning (made with Sauvingnon Blanc, Limoncello, green tea and mint), and the Red Thunder (made with Malbec, Henessey, cinnamon and apple).

  · Bacareto: A relaxed and informal café bar, inspired by the small bàcari of Venice; Bacareto have chosen to highlight an Italian Pinot Grigio with their salt cod crostino, and an Italian Barbera with their seasonal mini pizzettes.

• Daffodil: At this modern gastro pub, they focus on quality seasonal food with a focus on local Welsh produce. Here, you can pair a crisp Italian white with a trio of Welsh rarebit croquettes, or a dry Garnacha rosé with their delicious pork belly bites.
