 “Past the caramel nose is a creamy, rounded, soft palate with subtle citrus and yeast flavours that leave the most wonderful aftertaste. Exceptional wine.”

 

Matthew Nugent, Irish Sun


 

Graham Norton

Graham Norton's Own Sauvignon Blanc


“A properly pungent, zingy Kiwi Sauvignon blended by the affable Bandon man himself and all profits going to a dog charity. Sound value, decent wine.

“Lovely plump peaches and orange peel, with a refreshing dry finish. Perfect on its own, but I reckon it would be good with thai/green curry prawns.”
