The Big Move is on!
More From: Curious Wines
Posted May 31st, 2010 by Michael Kane
Announced quietly on Twitter a number of weeks ago, it’s official: we’re moving!
With just a tinge of sadness, just 18 months after opening our Bandon wine warehouse, it is testimony to our wonderfully supportive customer base that we’ve outgrown it and are moving to the city.
We’re absolutely thrilled to announce the new home of Curious Wines will be the Kinsale Road Commercial Centre, Kinsale Road, Cork (or, to those with young kids, beside Smyths Toys off the Kinsale Road roundabout!).
The new Curious Wines warehouse will have 2,500 square feet of retail space, exclusively dedicated to our unique range of wines, and with seven day opening all year round. With licensing granted, work began last week on transforming the empty shell of Unit 36 into what will be an emporium for wine lovers, and the largest wine store in the city.
Moving will commence in the next couple of weeks with the intention to close Bandon and open in Cork by the end of June. Further details will be posted here on the blog as the time approaches.
Our sincerest, most heart-felt thanks to every one of our customers, from Bandon to Donegal, who’ve made our little dream such a success so far. Curious Wines is on the up, thanks for making it possible.

Looks brill, guys. The very best of luck in your new life in the big smoke. Now I’ll have no reason to go to Bandon anymore. Hang on, actually, Uruu’s pretty good too!

Wonderful news guys – I can’t wait to call to see the new place.

I’ve been assured by management that those stairs lead to a hot tub!
I suspect I’m being lied to, however…

Great location for a great company.
Can’t wait for you to land here.
Best of luck moving all those bottles.

Is that carpet I see that should help the bottles bounce a bit better. Best of luck guys!!

Thanks a million guys, bit of work between now and the end of June, but exciting times for all.
Really appreciate the kind comments.

Ahem, yeah, know I’m going to regret this every time we drop one, but we lifted the carpet! What would happen if the hot-tub leaked?

Congratulations Guys! Keep up the good work.
