Here is our 2020 Wine list featuring some of the great motor cars that were produced here in the UK. Sadly not many these days . But taking their place are the truly world class sparkling wines, they really do challenge the great names of Champagne.

Our wine list is slowly drifting back to a European bias and this includes many new wines from the east of Europe, including, Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Greece, as well as Israel ( they are in the Eurovision song contest so they must be in Europe)

Look out for our regular special offers, newsletters and annual wine tasting at Tennant`s fabulous auction rooms in Leyburn.

With very best wishes,
