Got this as part of a gift and have ordered three more for a special occasion- just a deeply flavoured wine with complex berry flavours and v smooth with some depth. Drank it early 2025 - that said lovely coming out of the bottle but had a little bit the next day. Not the same. Not sure that relevant!

I prefer this to champagne , its lighter but really special .

Highly recommend Whelehans wines.
Bought a selection of wines for a friend’s birthday, all great quality and value, delivered on nominated date with gift card by the loveliest delivery driver! Thanks Whelehans, I’ll be sure to use you again!

Tastes this wine in France, fresh, crisp very nice and underrated.

Quite a dark and heavy red but beautiful flavours coming through. I'd recommend it with beef.

Great service , delivery and packaging. Top class

Originally needed for cooking, now this has become my special aperatif.

Great wine especially at this price point

I ordered this amazing product in the evening and received it the day after in the morning!! What an amazing service both me and my husband were shocked how fast it arrived! It’s an amazing experience !!

Pol Roger is my favourite of the large champagne houses. I ordered some from Australia to be delivered to my family who i would be staying with. Service was excellent. Thanks Whelan’s Wines, i’ll definitely order with you again

Very strong on the nose, smelling of overripe fruit; you can feel the 14% alcohol. On the palate it is much more balanced, but still a powerful wine, with significant grip, notes of dark fruit, leather, maybe a touch of tobacco, and generally a bit wild. Can tolerate very strong flavours of food. Chargrilled meat? Sure! Salt and vinegar crisps? No problem! Overall, well worth a punt, even for old-world skeptics!

A Juicy and round Malbec with soft tannins and some interesting, slightly vegetal notes adding more freshness and complexity. Enjoyed lightly chilled with a traditional roast chicken and some Provencal style roasted vegetables!

Beautiful Chardonnay champagne. Excellent service from Whelehans. They go the extra mile to satisfy customers .

This is a light ish red (12.5%), but with a little bit of tannin, making it feel like a good red for an Irish summer. It comes across as something between a Grenache and maybe a beujolais, but have others refer to this grape as being similar to Italian Nebbiolos. It’s not my favourite kind of red, but it’s eminently drinkable and very well made.

It's a perfectly well-balanced Tempranillo. Ripe red fruit with hints of spice and a gentle touch of wood. Tannins are smooth, still slightly granular, balanced with a juicy and spiced mouth feeling acidity. Long and pleasant finishing. El Ribazo is made from the best vineyards of our exclusive producer Bodegas de La Marquesa."

opened it on a sunny summer's evening, with a view to having a tasting glass. I was "assaulted" with a torrent of flavours - who would have thought the humble gamay grape could be so spectacular?! I took a chance on it and have to say, it is a fabulous wine. @27 euros, very good value.

Very classic for chill out days

A lovely fruity taste. Kept on drinking over several glasses.

heard Jean Smullen give glowing review on Moncrieff's Movies & Booze segment on Newstalk. She was spot on!
