 WELCOME TO ONCE UPON A VINE!!


We're a Wine Shop & Tasting Room in the heart of Horsforth, selling a fabulous array of wines from all over the world.

We also sell Local Craft Beers, Artisan Cheese & Charcuterie AND we are open daily to serve a weekly-changing list of wines by-the-glass. You can chow-down on some of that delicious Cheese & Charcuterie whilst you enjoy your glass of wine, too!!

You can pop in for a bottle or two to take home or stay for a glass. We serve lovely artisan Cheese & Charcuterie both to eat-in or take away - along with all the usual accoutrements like Olives, Pickles, Crackers etc etc.


We also host Tasting Evenings such as Raclette Nights, Tour Of Italy, Meet The Maker and MANY more!! Click on the link at the top of the page to take a look at the current list and book online via Eventbrite!!
