Blending American and Irish Roots

Take one of America’s first wine families, mix in one of Ireland’s legendary distilleries, toss in a pinch of Petite Sirah and you have Concannon Irish Whiskey.

In this video, Wine Oh TV’s Monique Soltani shows us how, with a little luck of the Irish on their side, Concannon Vineyard is honoring its heritage and paying tribute to the past by looking toward the future.

John Concannon, Fourth Generation Vintner of Concannon

“The United States is presently the largest market for Irish whiskey and growing. We’re thrilled to offer a unique take on the category to American consumers with Concannon, a fiercely independent spirit from Ireland’s sole craft distillery that shares the heritage of both cultures as so many Irish-Americans do.”

Concannon Irish Whiskey shipped nationally on January 16, 2012. It can be found at specialty shops and fine liquor stores with the suggested retail price of $24.99 for a 750 ml bottle.
