Irish wine

Irish wine production takes place in a small number of vineyards and wine producers the majority of which lie in County Cork, Ireland, with Lusk, North County Dublin, also producing a wine named 'Lusca'. Ireland is officially listed as a wine producing country by the European Commission. Ballydrehid House Estate (in Cahir, County Tipperary), Blackwater Valley Vineyard (Mallow), The Watergrasshill Vineyard (Bartlemy), Longueville House (Mallow), West Waterford Vineyard (Cappoquin, County Waterford) and the most southern and longest standing Thomas Walk Vineyard (Kinsale) all produce wine despite being well north of the area where the Vitis vinifera commonly occurs.
