Wine: Let the wine world be your oyster
It’s oyster season again, and what better way to savour their delights than pairing them with a delectable wine?
And some time make the time to drive out west
Into County Clare, along the Flaggy Shore,
In September or October, when the wind
And the light are working off each other
So that the ocean on one side is wild
With foam and glitter.
– Postscript, by Seamus Heaney
I’m drawn to the idea that our Nobel Prize-winning writer was lured west not just for the gloriously wild landscape, but also for its oysters ...
