Predominantly Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc, this smooth, supple red shows powerful plum and cherry fruits on the nose, supported by firm tannins, spice and well-balanced acidity on the palate.
"Bergerac is a wine-producing region formerly popular but now lost in the rush to internationalisation. However, the best wines remain as characterful reminders of times past and, like many ‘old fashioned’ wines, go brilliantly with the foods produced locally. Drink this with charcuterie or game to make both the food and wine sing – the slightly dusty tannins, dark fruit and pronounced acidity are spot on. This is no throwback though – the bonus is that modern winemaking techniques mean the wine is 100% correct too, without too much local character!"

Rich and creamy with exotic fruit aromas, with fresh mandarin notes and nuts on the palate.
"The rather bland packaging masks a high quality, interesting wine, which instantly wins over all who taste it. On the nose there is a rich, creamy complexity whilst the palate is buoyed by luxurious, peachy fruit and fresh acidity. Not all wines made by expat winemakers are special, but this is! It would be a great alternative to chardonnay, having the weight and feel of an expensive white burgundy."

The nose reveals a beautiful aromatic complexity of pears, green apples and grapefruit nuances. The acidity and suppleness of fruit are in perfect harmony and display the elegance and richness of this Burgundian Chardonnay.
"As Burgundy from the famous Côte d’Or gets beyond the reach of many customers, the vineyards further south have taken up the challenge to produce excellent wine. Formerly blended into mass-market wines, many producers are now vinifying carefully, using good quality oak, and creating crisp, complex wines that are a world away from blowsy Australian Chardonnay. Made especially for us by the dynamic winemakers at the well-known Domaine des Deux Roches, this is a great example - great as an aperitif or with food, especially if the sun’s out."

A fine Beaune with a deep, intense nose brim full of strawberry and cherry fruits and a rich, oaky character.
"I've been with Majestic for 17 years (albeit never with responsibility for this region) but I still struggle with the complexities of Burgundy. What I do is rely on our buyers to taste, and taste, and taste... and then produce interesting parcels of high quality wine, often from producers I’ve never heard of. Far from the weedy, acidic wines some ‘top’ producers dole out, this is lush, rich and tasty. With just a hint of new oak to balance the fruit, in Burgundian terms it’s a major ‘bargain’. I’d recommend drinking it with food that’s relatively simple to avoid overpowering it - sirloin steak, tomato salad and fresh baguette would be perfect!"
