"Those in search of contemporary drinks from Irish winemakers might hunt down an Argentinean pair, El Comandante Malbec and Chardonnay, from a winery in Mendoza started by another Michael Lynch, a retired commandant in the Irish army in 2006. Sadly, Lynch died in 2008, but his son, Tom, has taken up the mantle. You will find the wines at Mitchell & Son in Dublin."
Martin Morin, "Start the goose hunt", The Sunday Times, 10/03/13.
