Continuing with our visits (always unannounced because they are never planned!) we found ourselves at the Grape and Grain at the Leopardstown Inn in Dublin.

Its small and Charming and stocked with fabulous wines. Carefully chosen and great value. Michael O’Connor is the manager responsible. That’s him with the smile on…

The ‘wall of fame’ in the photo is a great idea. It shows each of the winners of the 2017 NOFFLA Irish Wine Awards.

Each shelf in Grape and Grain bursts with quality and value and Michael ‘knows his grapes’.  Love it.
