Majestic
The Majestic Wine warehouse in Ruislip puts on tastings regularly. Free. Get on their mailing list to be informed.On April 10th 2025 we tasted five wines, a sparkling, two whites and two reds. I liked them all, although I don't normally drink or like red wine.
We started with a British sparkling wine, Silverhand Estate Sparkling Brut, from Kent. This area of the downs is chalky (you may recall the image in your mind on hearing the song about the white cliffs of Dover, immortalised in the Vera Lynn song). Those chalk soils, which the French call terroir, like territory, are the same as the base in France's Champagne region. But the British sparkling wine is cheaper, only 18 pounds sterling a bottle, the price comes down to only 12.0 if you buy it in the Majeti Wines Mi Six, a case of six mixxed wines.
Magestic sell wines, beers, spirits, low and no alcohol beers and spirits, packets of nuts and crisps. They do deliveries, free tasting, beginner learning sessions for a low price), wines by the bottle cases of 6 or 12, and a wine club. Their premises are in England, Scotland and Wales.
