Description

Róisín Curley is a super star. Not only a winemaker and micro-negotiant, she is a full-time front-line healthcare worker, practicing as a pharmacist in Ballyhaunis, County Mayo.

Her enthusiasm for wine led to her turning a hobby into this incredible alternate life with, via lengthy studies that led her to work in Chateau Latour (yes, the Chateau Latour), Chateau Grillet in the Rhone, Geisenheim in the Rhein and Montpelier. Whenever we've had the fortune to meet her, it is a forensic characteristic that comes to mind, yet not at the expense of being a charming, engaging, humble funny and all-round jolly good person. Not all of them wear capes...
