Roisin Curley Bourgogne Rouge 2023

Róisín Curley is a Mayo-born pharmacist and one of only 416 Masters of Wine globally, who transformed a wine hobby discovered 15 years ago into an extraordinary dual career. Since 2015, she has operated as a micro-négociant in Burgundy, sourcing tiny parcels of grapes from the finest vineyards whilst maintaining her full-time role in her family's pharmacy in Ballyhaunis, County Mayo. Her winemaking journey began through extensive studies at Montpellier and Geisenheim, leading to prestigious positions at Château Latour and Château Grillet in the Rhône. Her production is so small and her hands-off, sustainable approach - crafting wines without added yeasts - has achieved immediate cult status. The wines consistently sell out very early and are listed at world-class restaurants like Copenhagen's Restaurant Geranium, making each restock of her "liquid gold" an eagerly anticipated event for wine lovers who must patiently wait to sample her exceptional Burgundies.
