Larger than life in every way, Anthony is our Managing Director. He travels the world carefully selecting wines which remain true to their region, whilst offering true quality and value. Weekends invariably see him glass of Burgundy in hand watching cars whizzing round a track in an exotic location or burly men in green shirts knocking each other over chasing a ball!

The creative bird, works from her empty nest – avoiding M50 migrations: Swallows’ Tale, Puna Snipe and Hooded Plover have been named and labelled to adorn the bottles produced by the husband’s blending activities. Price Lists, point of sale material and anything illustrated are her bag.

Seems determined to fit as much as possible into her time… 3 boys, a horse, a dog, 3 hens (there were 6!) and some fish fill her home life. Responsible for social media, marketing and WSET education Harriet still finds time to study for her MW exams in June 2013.

Winter sees him surfing waves and in summer he sails through them. Willy loves the West, hence that's his sales area, which he services in between regular 'sea' breaks!

French by name French by nature. We had a job to persuade him that quality wine is produced outside his homeland, ask him what ‘other’ wine he fancies? “Bouff” and a shrug may be the reply! Wine must be in his blood because his natural palate is pretty spot on despite having fallen into his first job as a sommelier because he was French!

Been round the block a few times. The original salesman; a twinkle in his eye and a catalogue of jokes to put a smile on your face even on the darkest of days! With a deep knowledge (he studied for his MW) of wine ‘Richie’ seems to have most of the Asian establishments in Dublin coming back for more.

Manages to keep her family and her extended family (everyone at Tindals) very well looked after. Peer through the window into her lair and you’ll see her crouched behind a slightly (water)stressed plant and piles of paperwork. The accountant in the office; Moyra is an integral part of the Tindal team..

Hot off the Level 3 WSET exam, Nicole diligently applies herself to all she does. Running the office with relative calm Nicole’s admin skills are second to none. A lover of vintage shops, food (not vintage) and wine (obviously!) Nicole spends her time off wearing, eating and drinking the above (in that order – or so she says!).

If you’re looking to invest in some fine wine or learn some more about a Cru Classé, Nigel is your man. In the wine trade since he started shaving, there’s very little that Nigel doesn’t know about the world of top quality wine. When he’s not opening a bottle of Lynch-Bages or Leoville Barton for some eager punters he’s sitting behind a very tidy desk rallying the troops and bringing projects to fruition.

If you were over-taken by a black Mitsubishi in the deep south recently, it was probably Mick. Cruising between appointments (cups of coffee) he’s worked the Cork area for years. Leinster is a dirty word to Mick and he’s the first to find an excuse if (god forbid) Munster ever stumble on the Rugby field.

Studying wine making at UC Davis there is no better man for the detail! Covering the south-east and midlands, Ronan is married to an Iowan who sticks true to her roots – there’s likely to be plenty of American wine tucked in between his favourite Tempranillos.

The Anneka Rice of wine, often seen rushing round central Dublin phone under his ear, case of wine on one arm and order book in the in other. Nothing is too much for Declan aka ‘golden boy’, he won’t let you down, whether it’s dispatching a last minute order, coaching the local football team (under-9s), cooking up a storm for his long suffering family or staying up the latest at a company get together, He’s your man!

By day Amelia takes wine orders and is the ‘authentic’ French accent on the end of the phone. By night she sings the most amazing ‘Edith Piaf’ renditions after one or two glasses of Bordeaux. Tuesdays take her to Boxercise in an attempt to sweat out the excess ‘escargot’ and give her carte blanche to continue her love affair with fine food and wine at the weekend.

Working hard in her corner of the office Emily is a cog in the wheels of Tindal Wine Merchants. One woman purchasing team by day: Music fanatic and Meursault addict by night. Emily definitely deserves her glass of wine in the evening (not always Meursault!) when the kids have gone to bed.
