Wine: Ballymaloe Litfest line-up announced

Still another full week of January to go but I recommend you cheer yourself up by checking out the line-up for the Ballymaloe Litfest which has just been announced.

Now in its third year, Litfest has already become known as the Electric Picnic (or should that be Glastonbury?) of the Food and Wine world.

The Kerrygold Ballymaloe Literary Festival of Food and Wine, to give it its full title, runs from the May 15 to 17, and this year the event has been streamlined a little so you won’t miss quite so many events.
