Old World Charm
The shop would remind you of the old-fashioned tobacconists of the past, with the library walls of wine in polished wood, gleaming brass and leather finishes. It encourages the customer to browse and indeed this is what Declan and Claire would expect from a shopping experience. Pipes, tobacco and quality Cuban cigars are indeed part of the offering, making Worldwide Wines the only surviving tobacconist in the Waterford city area.
Fine old malts, brandies, and liqueurs from all over the world sit alongside local specialty drinks. The craft beer selection likewise comes from near and far and has been tested and tasted so that customers can be assured of the finest quality.
OUR PROMISE
We strive in bringing the latest & best tasting wines on the market to Waterfdord & beyond.
Passion
A shared passion for quality wine inspired the Waterford city couple, Declan and Claire, to make a major career change in 2001. They decided to set up Ireland’s best off-license in their native city, and they went on to do just that.
What’s particularly special about Worldwide Wines is the personal touch that visitors to the store always enjoy. Declan, Claire, and the team have time, expertise, and enthusiasm for their chosen profession so that each customer leaves satisfied and confident in their selection.
Extensive Range
Every product has been tried and tested so that customers get the best possible quality and value for money, as well as the best advice. Up to 4,000 wines alone are tasted each year. Wines are sourced where possible from small boutique wineries, many using organic production methods and operated on sustainable principles. Wines are selected only on merit. This places Declan, Claire and the team in a position to offer expert advice on which wine goes best with the Sunday roast or with fish or fowl or just for sipping by the fire.
