Most leads went dead and she ended up with just two names, both hotels one that supposedly has vineyards from which they made wine -- Longueville House and Bunratty Castle Hotel which made Mead (not wine). Neither of their websites mention their drink products, though my friend has a photo of the Bunratty Mead label from a bottle exported to the US.
Another name that keeps coming up is Blackwater Valley Vineyard which supposedly grows/makes Reichensteiner but as Longueville House is in Blackwater Valley its not clear if they are the same.

Maybe we'll meet at the next guerrilla tasting.

I've only tried a few Owen Roe wines, but liked the dry ones (a dessert wine not so much)

I believe Rogov was though. If he had been around, I'm quite sure he and Pepys would have been 'peeps.
