‘Enticing scents of blue flower, red plum, resin and new leather come to the forefront. Tightly wound with youthful tension, the linear palate shows sour cherry, pomegranate, star anise and black tea alongside nervous acidity and close-grained tannins that grip the close. Give it time to fully unwind and develop. Drink 2029-2039.’
95/100 Wine Enthusiast
‘A fresh, light-bodied red, offering dried cherry, currant and mineral flavors. Firm, leaving a chalky sensation on the lingering finish. Reveals lovely balance and freshness. Drink now through 2038. 750 cases made.’
91/100 Wine Spectator, November 2021
‘The 2019 Barbaresco Gallina is a very pretty, effusive wine. Crushed raspberry, flowers, mint and sweet pipe tobacco all lift from the glass. This mid-weight, aromatic Barbaresco is everything Barbaresco should be; gracious, beautifully perfumed and exquisitely charming. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off this jewel of a wine.’

We cannot guarantee delivery on a given day. If the delivery date is important, please let us know, and we'll put one of our 'Not to Be Opened Before' stickers on the box and aim for delivery a day or two early.
Your orders are delivered by courier to ensure fast and reliable delivery of each carefully packaged consignment. Because nobody likes breakages, we use very strong and secure packaging specially designed to protect wine bottles.

Personalised champagne orders are dispatched to anticipate your requested deadline (see above), or otherwise as soon as possible. Please allow at least one extra working day for these orders to be prepared.
The ideal delivery address has someone available to sign for parcels during office hours, so a work address may be a better choice than a home address. An Eircode eliminates any doubt about the delivery location, and you can find or check Eircodes here.
Our couriers do their best to deliver and often have amazing local knowledge, but in the event of difficulties a reliable telephone number for the recipient makes all the difference and is a required piece of information. A mobile number is usually best.
When we dispatch your order, we send on a tracking code so that you can follow your order in transit on the courier's website.
If you need delivery to Northern Ireland, our €15 standard rate applies, with orders of €150 and more travelling free—for the time being.
We do not generally send wine overseas because of the complicated bureaucratic requirements and very high cost. If you would nonetheless like more information about deliveries outside the island of Ireland, please ask.
Wine is a natural product: its variety is what makes it so interesting!
Sometimes, though, a faulty bottle turns up. It's rare, but it does happen.
We want you to enjoy the wines you buy from us, and we'd like you to enjoy doing business with us too.
If you are unlucky enough to receive a bad bottle, please let us know immediately by calling the office on 021 431 6000 and we'll arrange a replacement or issue a credit in compensation.
Despite our best efforts to wrap and pack securely, damage in transit occurs from time to time.
If there's a breakage, our couriers will normally return the whole fragrant mess to us straight away.
If, however, the damage isn't apparent until you open the box, we'd still prefer to have the whole parcel collected. We'll send you a replacement as soon as possible.
