A Bordeaux Evening in Cork

The Winegeese Team announce:

A Bordeaux Evening in Cork

'A Bordeaux Evening in Cork' with Pierre Lawton, Bordeaux and Ted Murphy, Irish Wine Geese, and author 'A Kingdon of Wine - The Story of Ireland's Wine Geese', in the Sculpture Gallery, The Crawford Art Gallery, Cork, Thursday 11th July, 6pm €12

Pierre Lawton is an eight generation Bordeaux-based wine merchant specializing in top chateaux wines. He is the owner of Alias. His family has been selling wine in Bordeaux since 1739.

He is one of the most interesting and knowledgeable people in Bordeaux and we are very much looking forward to welcoming Pierre back to Cork. His family have great connections with Cork, and there is a portrait of one of Pierre’s ancestors, a Lord Mayor of Cork, on display in the Crawford Art Gallery, Cork

Pierre will also be joined by Ted Murphy (left), author of ‘A Kingdom of Wine – The Story of Ireland’s Wine Geese. Ted is the expert of all things to do with Ireland’s Wine Geese – Irish people, both long ago, and present generations, who are involved in winemaking all over the wine world.

This promises to be one of the highlights of the wine calendar in Cork – the wine capital of Ireland.
