A little Yorkshire pride, poured 🥂

Last week, we introduced a dedicated Yorkshire section to our w**e list, featuring our friends at Dunesforde Vineyard.

We were their very first restaurant client many years ago, so it’s a pleasure to continue championing their w**es here at The Box Tree.

From Bacchus and Solaris to rosé, Pinot Noir Précoce and the aptly named Queen of the North sparkling w**e, there’s plenty to discover from our home county.

Join us and try a taste of Yorkshire on your next visit.
