The Cellar Door
After 106 years of conducting our business from our base in Hull, most recently opening Red Duster House in York Street in 1972, we are delighted to be in our new purpose built head office and bonded warehouse at Melton on the outskirts of Hull. A key part in establishing ourselves here has been the introduction of our cellar door, providing a facility for our customers to come along, taste in excess of 20 wines (at any one time) and discuss their requirements with our highly experienced and knowledgeable team, headed by Stuart Shenton.
Wine Store
Stuart has a passion for wine and following his training with Oddbins, went on to work for a specialist wholesaler and importer covering the north of England. Stuart and his team will be holding regular tastings, which will be advertised on our website and should you wish to receive information regarding these, please join our mailing list.
