Enrico Fantasia has been importing wines to Ireland since 2005. A native of Venice, he is an expert on the classic wine regions of Italy, with particular love for Friuli and Piemonte. He has also become a champion for wines from lesser-known areas and indigenous grape varieties, and has expanded the range with wines from France, Spain, Portugal, Austria and Slovenia. In a previous life he played the French horn in the Viennese orchestra, and in a future life he will spend a lot more time fly-fishing.

Pip joined Grapecircus at the beginning of 2024. She has worked in many aspects of wine via cheese in Dublin and if she’s not working she’s most likely harping on about the benefits of saunas and ice baths, butter and her rescue dog Locky.
