Lightfoot Wines

Lightfoot Wines has traded from Main Street in the village of Wentworth since May 1989, making it one of the longer-standing independent wine merchants in South Yorkshire. The shop is now run by Matt, who tastes new arrivals himself before deciding whether to bring them onto the shelves, and who deals directly with growers in France, Italy, South America and Australia. The range mixes everyday drinking bottles with more considered options, and the shop offers click and collect alongside free delivery on orders over one hundred pounds. Trade and wholesale accounts are available for local restaurants and pubs. The shop's setting, on the main street of a village built around the Wentworth Woodhouse estate, gives it a different customer base to city-centre wine shops, drawing on passing visitors as much as locals doing a weekly shop.
