The Royal Irish Yacht Club believes in the provision of a fine dining experience matched with an excellent wine selection. 

We have always felt it important to have an experienced and knowledgeable wine committee to meet that brief. Its raison d’etre is to ensure that the range and quality of wines available in the Dining Room and the Bar match the quality of the dining experience and the Club’s ambience. 
 
The committee continually reviews the wines to ensure that there is an appropriate balance of varieties, prices and countries of origin. En primeur wines are sourced early in their life cycle to allow us to provide Members with top quality wines at modest prices, once they are ready for consumption. 

The Royal Irish Yacht Club is delighted to present a wine list that celebrates the elegance and heritage of Bordeaux. Our cellar brings together many of the region’s finest châteaux — from the grand names of Pauillac, Margaux, and Saint-Julien, to carefully chosen wines from Saint-Émilion, Pomerol, and beyond.

This collection has been assembled to offer both prestige and variety. Members will find celebrated crus classés such as Lynch-Bages, Léoville Barton, and Pichon Longueville, alongside excellent value from estates like Château Gloria and Ormes de Pez. With vintages ranging from youthful and vibrant to those ready for immediate enjoyment, the list has been curated to complement the Club’s dining and social occasions.

Whether raising a glass after sailing, dining with friends, or marking a special celebration, we invite you to explore this carefully chosen selection and enjoy the craftsmanship and tradition each wine represents.
