  • About

Ireland, may well have been a more faithful customer of gascon wines than was England. Several Irishmen have played a part in the history of Bordeaux wine: the bartons provide one example, and the Lynch of pauillac’s Ch Lynch-Bages was also Irish.

Despite several attempts at commercial viticulture, in conditions not dissimilar to those of england, very few Irish vineyards have outlasted their original creators. By 2014 only two were making wine commercially: Lusca in Lusk just outside Dublin and Amurensis Walk vineyard at Kinsale.
