I went along to day one of the Good Wine Show, held in the Clarion Hotel in Cork.

Three of Ireland’s premier independant wine retailers were showing their wares:

Curious Wines

Karwig Wines

Bubble Brothers

There was also some gourmet food to try:

There was an excellent turn out

The mood was fantastic. There were some brilliant wines on offer, and the super friendly atmosphere made for a relaxed event. It was very easy to try to various wines on offer, and some of the suppliers had travelled to the event. It’s lovely to meet the people that actually make the product on offer, and hear them talk with pride about the area their wines come from, and how they actually make the wines.

If you’re in Cork tomorrow – head along. It’ll be a great day out on what’s likely to be a miserable day. It’s a lovely venue too, and from the conference room you get a nice view of the river.
