ViniPortugal Tasting - Dublin

Jean Smullen and Tania Oliveira did an excellent job organising the Wines of Portugal tasting, in Dublin on 24th October. Despite the heavy rain, which caused havoc in Dublin's streets and abandoned cars on the roads, we were safe and dry in the Radisson Blu hotel showcasing Portugal's finest wines.

Nick and Charlotte made the trip with Camilo Leite of Lusovini, to support Classic Drinks on their stand and also Joao Portugal Ramos on theirs, with a selection of wines stocked by O'Briens. All the wines were very well received by both the Irish Trade and the general public who attended the final 2 hours of the show.

The show was a great chance for Charlotte to meet some of the great clients we deal with in Ireland, Lynne Coyle and Kevin O'Brien from O'Briens, Hugh Murray, Steve Dwyer, Kieran Quinn from Classic Drinks, the lovely Jean Smullen and many more....

After the tasting, Steve Dwyer of Classic Drinks treated us all to Dinner at Olesya's wine bar and bistro and it was absolutely gorgeous. We drank Boas Vinhas red... from our supplier Lusovini in Portugal of course and a beautiful Sauvignon blanc from NZ. In true Irish style we then went on to drink Guiness in a traditional Irish pub in the heart of Dublin before bed.

Overall a worthwhile trip and a great tasting, enjoyed by all who took part.
