The original Irish Wine Geese were the men and women who fled Ireland for the continent, in the wake of the Battle of the Boyne, and made their fortune in the wine industry. Their Bordeaux legacy includes names such as Kirwan, Lynch-Bages and Phélan-Ségur.
Successive centuries of Irish émigrés have integrated into societies all over the world and many have laid down wine roots, to become the modern Irish Wine Geese.
