One such offering comes to us from County Louth. Fairy Trees wine comes from a County Louth vineyard and has produced award-winning wine. The secret is French vines and Irish soil, a winning combination
The winery, in Dunleer, was founded in 2020 by the Laclie family, whose French/Irish origins inspired the winery's name. The master winemaker is Bertrand (Bert) Laclie.
