This bottle comes from the old firm of Prestons in Drogheda. Prestons can trace their history back to the 1300’s when wine was first traded in the town. The Prestons would import from Bordeaux and trade with various ports across England, Scotland and Ireland. The firm became one of the biggest wine and spirits merchants in the country and owned a brewery and distillery in the town. They had close ties with the company that was to become Grants of Ireland throughout the 1900s.
