And there are plenty of quality outlets in Sheffield where excellent tipples can be bought, either as individual bottles or in cases. Here are nine of the best places to find wine in the city.
5. Hop Hideout, city centre

6. Lightfoot Wines, Wentworth
Lightfoot Wines runs an office on Shepcote Lane in Sheffield but its retail outlet is in Wentworth, Rotherham, aiming to provide 'a level of service not seen in regular shops' and selling wines by the case. (www.lightfootwines.co.uk) Photo: Google
7. Waitrose, Ecclesall Road
It may be one of Britain's biggest supermarket chains but Waitrose gets a mention because of its well-stocked wine department in Sheffield, and its wide range of cases - including mixed selections of red and white - that can be ordered in. (www.waitrose.com) Photo: Google
8. Majestic, Abbeydale Road
Another national outfit, Majestic earns its place because of its status as a proper destination for wine by the case. It holds tastings, puts on plenty of discount offers and provides free delivery and glass hire. (www.majestic.co.uk) Photo: Google
