The Wine Buff Kilkenny

Sustainably farmed wines direct from family-run Vineyards to The Wine Buff Kilkenny. Expert advice Living in St.

The Wine Buff was born when Paddy O’Flynn attained his dream of bringing the best family-run vineyard wines to Ireland. 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-production. Starting as a single wine shop in Ireland, The Wine Buff has now expanded nationwide. If you’re vis

iting Bordeaux, the wine capital of the world, you can meet Paddy at our flagship store, The Wine Buff St Emilion.

Tornesi Brunello di Montalcino is a prestigious Italian red wine from Tuscany, made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, known for its structure, aging potential, and complex flavors of dark cherry, oak, coffee, and earthy notes. It's a full-bodied, tannic wine that benefits from decanting or cellaring, pairing well with red meats, aged cheeses, and hearty pasta dishes.

Paddy O’Flynn: ‘You can smell the smoke in St Emillion’.
Bordeaux is on high alert.

The Cuvée Prestige is a bold, structured and delicious Bordeaux with real ambition.

The combination of premium terroir, low yields, and careful oak ageing produces a wine that punches well above its appellation — a genuine collector’s bottle from a Wine Buff exclusive estate, available only through our shops and online.

Great Bordeaux doesn't have to cost a fortune.

A classic Médoc blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, from one of the appellation's most traditionally-minded family estates — blackcurrant and herb-scented, medium-bodied and excellent value.

Fire up the bbq.

A premium medium-bodied Egri Bikavér (Bulls Blood) blending Kékfrankos (Blaufrankisch) , Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon — aged in wooden barrels to add cocoa and coffee complexity to the wine's vibrant cherry and currant fruit.

Playful acidity, velvety tannins, and a long finish make this an excellent food wine and a fine introduction to Hungary's most celebrated red wine style.

Perfect for weekend BBQ. Buffy approves.

Love NZ, but looking for something with a friendlier price tag and way less air miles?

A crisp, aromatic Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc from HVE-certified vineyards in Entre-Deux-Mers. Zesty, fresh, and food-friendly, this is a wine that delivers the classic character of white Bordeaux at an excellent price point — perfect for everyday drinking and the table alike.

Excellent with chicken and fish. The fresh acidity and aromatic character also make it a great match for seafood, light salads, and soft cheeses. The perfect midweek treat.

A single-variety Alvarinho from Vinho Verde — fresher and more aromatic than most, with a coastal saline edge that makes it a natural partner for seafood.

Vegan-friendly and best enjoyed young, this is a wine built for the table in the sunny garden.

Planning pizza in the garden? Think Sicily, think Nero d’Avola.
Mediterranean aromas of ripe berries and garrigue herbs are followed by flavours of sweet cassis, sloe and red cherry. Ripe, fine-grained tannins give balance to the fruit so, yet again, this is another Italian red that hits top form with food.

Perfect rosé weather requires the perfect rosé.

Beaubois is a beautiful biodynamic and vegan Grenache rosé from the sun-drenched Costières de Nîmes — pale pink, fresh, and vibrant, with the lively red fruit character that makes Grenache rosé one of the most food-friendly styles in France. Drink young and well chilled.
