The Wine Buff Killarney

Sustainably farmed wines direct from family-run Vineyards to The Wine Buff Killarney. Expert advice and tastings on artisan wines for every occasion.

The Wine Buff was born when Paddy O’Flynn attained his dream of bringing the best, family-run vineyard wines to Ireland. Living in St. Emilion since 1988, Paddy experienced first-hand how you can taste the generational stories in each bottle of wine the vineyard produces, a flavour that is lost in mass-produced wines. Starting as a single wine shop in Ireland, The Wine Buff has expanded nationwide

and our flagship Wine Store in St Emilion, Bordeaux, with expert Wine Buffs passionately telling the story behind our quality/priced wines. If you’re visiting the wine capital of the world, you can meet Paddy O' Flynn at The Wine Buff St Emilion.

This wine was a big hit last Saturday at our Spanish Wine & Cheese tasting!

A beautiful red from Utiel-Requena near Valencia in Spain.

Made from the native Bobal grape, this wine is smooth with balanced acidity and fantastic flavours of black and red fruit.

I think this would be a great wine to try if you are a Malbec lover and want to taste something different yet similar. It’s also 100% organic and under €20.

Pop in to pick up your bottle over the weekend.

Feel free to tag someone who you think should try it.

Spoiler alert! No clear winner. The debate between screw cap and cork closures for wine bottles continues to captivate enthusiasts and industry experts alike. Screw caps, known for their convenience and consistency in sealing, prevent oxidation and cork taint, ensuring a fresher taste over time. Conversely, traditional corks offer a sense of ritual and romance, potentially allowing beneficial micro-oxygenation that can enhance the aging process of certain wines. However, corks can sometimes suffer from cork taint, leading to spoilage. Each closure has its proponents, and the choice often depends on the type of wine and personal preference. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff #snippets #screwcap #cork #debate #winepreservation

New In A truly elegant Pouilly-Fumé with a sunny character. Notes of peach and apricot on the nose, very smooth on the palate. Flavours of grapefruit and lemon, and a fresh finish with great length. Best served as an aperitif, and goes perfectly with fish and shellfish. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff @domainefranckmillet #newarrival #greatwine #france #pouillyfume #elegance

We really deserve a weekend of tranquility, sunshine, and a glass of rich white in the garden. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff #winesofportugal @quintadoparal_portugal #alentejo #bankholiday #chill #enjoy #whitewine

The Kisfiam (“my boy”) is the only certified organic Egri Bikavér (Bull’s Blood). It is characteristic of the blend, with spicy forest fruits, vibrant acidity and medium tannins. Rich, structured and lively. Notes of cherry cobbler, herbs and spices on the nose, with raspberries and zippy grapefruit on the palate and an earthy long finish. Unfiltered and unfined. Blaufrankisch, Syrah, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc. It’s a beautifully balanced wine, one of the favourites of our customers. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff @bukolyimarcell_organicwines #redwine #eger #organic #bullsblood #lambchops #kerrylamb #hungarianwine #simplepleasures #alfresco

Mules are essential on the steep hills of Priorat. They are resilient and hard workers, without them it would be impossible to look after the vineyards. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff @laconreria #priorat #hardwork #manual #mule #beautifulnature #organicwine #respect

Ahhh, the vibrant scents and flavours of the Mediterranean! The true elixir of long life. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff @poderiparpinellowinery #sardinia #cannonau #enjoylife #mediterranean

Indulge in a moment of pure tranquillity. Brilliant, deep ruby in colour, with a rich nose of crushed raspberry and strawberry with intermingling of herbs and liquorice. Juicy and lush on the palate, packed with red fruit, and white pepper with supple tannins. In The Wine Buff nationwide. #thewinebuffkillarney #thewinebuff #greatwine #vacqueras #chateaudesroques #serenity #confidence #quality
