    A new wine shop has opened in Knaresborough with a pledge to showcase Yorkshire's artisan suppliers.

    Reuben & Grey is a new retail brand that plans to open a chain of wine shops and delicatessens in Yorkshire.

    The shop, in Old Town Hall in Market Square, will sell hundred of wines from around the world as well as local beers and spirits.

    Luke Morland, the Knaresborough-born co-founder of Reuben & Grey, was part of the front-of-house team at Goldsborough Hall and also ran the Bay House Inn gastropub in Goldsborough for five years.

    The company plans to open a complementary delicatessen in the coming months, and is looking for premises in the Knaresborough and Harrogate area.

    The wine shop opened in the refurbished Grade Two listed building on Saturday.

    Mr Morland said:

    “Over the last year, we’ve seen a real shift in the way people shop and eat. Consumers are shopping more intelligently and wisely – they want to know the story behind what they buy.
    "They are now concerned with picking items correctly and ensuring that they have been locally sourced, and we want to be a vehicle to enable them to do this.
    “Our plan is that the Reuben & Grey name will be synonymous with the best of local, ethically-produced food and drink. We believe that there is real public support for an initiative like this."

    Mr Morland will manage the Knaresborough shop, which is expected to create two more jobs.

    He added:

    “We are fortunate that Yorkshire has become a centre of excellence for artisan food and gin producers and we want to celebrate this by offering well-sourced products.
    "People seem to have re-discovered their love of fine food and wine over the last year, and we are looking forward to helping them to continue that journey.”


    The wine store will be open Monday to Saturday from 10am-5pm, and on Sunday from 11am-4pm.
