    I'm looking for help from the wine buffs on here.

    I'm writing a piece on wines by Pro golfers. There are about 20 who either put their names to a wine or produce their own through their vineyards (Greg Norman owns three). What I'm trying to find out is whether any Irish restaurants or off licences or golf clubs stock these wines. I've been making calls but have drawn a blank so far. 15 years ago O'Briens stocked Greg Norman's wines and Lough Erne used to stock Faldo's wines but that's as far as I've got.

    The most likely ones are as follows:

    David Frost, South Africa.
    Greg Norman, Australia and California.
    Ernie Els, South Africa.
    Arnold Palmer, California
    Gary Player, South Africa.
    Retief Goosen, South Africa.
    Cristie Kerr, California.
    Luke Donald, California.
    Fred Couples, California.
    Nick Faldo, Australia.
    Mike Weir, Canada.
    Annika Sorenstam, California.
    Jack Nicklaus, California.

    All help gratefully received
    Thanks
    Kevin

    I know Jiminez has an interest but I don't know if he is commercially involved.

    strikes me as the kind of fella who might have a dedicated pocket in the bag with Rioja on tap. :)
    its the pocket next to the dedicated montecristo pocket ;)

    I had a bottle for 5.50 in my local all-you-can-eat Chinese last week. A nasty, sour little number - think it was a Tyrell Hatton.
