French Wine Fair Weekend on Oscar Wilde Cruise Ferry

The Normandie Wine Warehouse in Cherbourg is hosting a Wine Fair on board the Irish Ferries cruise ferry Oscar Wilde during its sailing from Rosslare
to the French port departing Friday, 27th November next and returning two days later on Sunday, 29th.

Present on board will be growers and winemakers from up to 20 quality French estates who will give talks and tastings of wines from Alsace, Beaujolais,
Champagne, Burgundy, Rhône Valley, Bordeaux and Languedoc, including an exclusive range of Vin de Pays wines starting at just EUR2.95 a bottle.

Seen as a means of stocking the Christmas cellar at bargain French prices, passengers taking part in the trip will have a chance to win one of six
magnums of Champagne being offered in a prize draw.

In Cherbourg, shoppers will have up to 5 hours to purchase the wines sampled at discount prices with the Normandie Wine store Avenue Carnot outlet
remaining open until the vessel departs again for Rosslare.

Fare for the trip is EUR99 per person, including a bed in a 2-bed ensuite cabin, plus EUR89 for a car when two or more adults travel together.

Reservations and further information can now be had on-line at www.irishferries.com or by calling Irish Ferries at 0818 300 400.
