The origins of the Molloy Group go back to 1933, when Martin Molloy purchased The Foxes Covert Pub in Tallaght Village. Molloys adopted the fox logo and it became synonymous with the Molloy name from that day and lives on today in all their branding. The original pub still stands today and has been extensively refurbished over the past few years to once again make it one of the leading pubs in Dublin. It’s food offering has even been voted the ábest Gastropub food in Dublin!
His son, Kevin Molloy, then started expanding the business in 1 965 and opened the first Molloy’s Liquor Store in Tallaght. This was at a time where there were very few outlets to purchase alcohol to take home, therefore, this was one of th e first real off-licences in Ireland. This took off during the 1980s with a shift towards more people enjoying alcohol at home, and led to the opening of more liquor stores across Dublin, where in 2018 now stands 7 off-licences and 2 pubs.
Now a 3rd generation business, Richard Molloy is making waves of his own, by ambitiously tailoring the off licences to meet the demands of the modern day consumer.
Quantities: Allow three glasses per person, expect to get five glasses per bottle. Do the sums, and round it up to the nearest case. Generally speaking white is more popular than red. A ratio of three white to two red is typical.
Sparkling wine reception: Allow one and a half glasses per head, and expect to get seven glasses per bottle
Toast after dinner: Many people now opt for a ‘drink of choice’ rather than a champagne toast after the speeches.
While it’s your wedding, try to make sure that you choose a wine which is a crowd-pleaser. Generally speaking, anything too crisp, too tonnic / grippy, too alcoholic or just too distinctive is probably not an ideal choice.
Aim for fruity white wines, with medium acidity Red wines should be medium bodied, with smooth tannin and ample fruit.
Current popular choices for weddings include Pinot Grigio, Chilean/New Zealand Souvignon Blanc, and Chardonnay is back in fashion. In reds, fruity Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon are more popular, while a smooth Riojo or Bordeaux will always impress.
It’s perfectly acceptable to choose Prosecco over Champagne! We have an award-winning Champagne Jeon Comyn, as well as several fantastic Prosecco to choose from. While seven glasses per bottle is on average pour for sparkling wine, you could squeeze eight glasses, depending on the glassware being used.

We source many of our wines directly from the producer, and pass on the savings to our customers.
Finding genuine value in wines is one of Molloys key strengths. We go directly to the supplier, allowing us to taste and negotiate, so that we can deliver the best possible quality at the keenest prices, under our Molloys Exclusive Wine Range.
Less than 10% of what we taste makes it to our stores. Yes, we are fussy! We are looking for the right taste at the right price - good fruit, balance, a nd with character. We also look out for the good presentation - something that you'd be happy t o bring to someones house as a gift. Most of Molloys Exclusive Wines are recommended by wine critics.
We stand over the quality and value of all our wines.
In seeking out great wines, we are looking for wines which have plenty of flavour, and a long finish.We value balance in a wine; for example, alcohol a nd acidity shouldn’t be aggressive. We know that our customers have varied tastes. Each wine should be true to its class and therefore we are also looking for typicality - i.e. how much a Merlot wine tastes like a Merlot.
From time to time we have wines that really stand out. This may be due to a variety of factors - good weather, longer aging, a talented producer, a special vineyard, an experimental batch or an innovative style of wine.
To help you identify these, we have rated our top wines along the following scale:
