Who says great wine has to follow all the rules? For The Guv’nor wines, the rulebook has been thrown out, and the winemakers can do what they do best. Make great wine for you.
Wine laws in Europe are complicated, and often they set strict rules on grape varieties which can be used, winemaking and ageing techniques, and vineyard management. While these rules have their advantages, they can also sometimes stifle creativity and quality. That’s where the Guv’nor comes in.
No rules. No vintage, region, or winemaking restrictions. By blending wines and grapes from across regions in Spain, these wines make something greater than the sum of their parts. The results speak for themselves, as these wines are consistently among your favourite wines, and they’re always amongst our best-selling wines. And you’ll only find them at Majestic.
Behind every bottle of The Guv’nor is the expertise and passion of one of Spain’s best and most respected wine producers, Félix Solís Avantis. A global leader in Spanish wine, and now owned by the third generation of Solís brothers, who continue to combine tradition and modernisation. The Guv’nor benefits from decades of experience, high standards and a commitment to consistent quality.
Their plant in Valdepeñas has evolved to become one of the largest and most innovative wine-producing facilities in the world. Their winery is one of the largest family-owned wineries worldwide and is fitted with the most modern production and storage facilities. There, their expert winemakers put into practice their core values and combine traditional vine cultivation methods with modern technology. It’s no wonder these factors result in wines that are of such high quality!
To ensure your wines are of exceptional quality, The Guv’nors’ grapes are hand-picked to make sure the best grapes from their vineyards are used for their blends. This is also helped by their presence across a range of Spanish wine regions, meaning they have access to high-quality grapes from each region, so your blend is the very best.
In the world of wine, there is a new trend: blends. Few do it better than The Guv’nor family, where rather than stick to a single grape or region, the wines are crafted from different varieties often sourced from multiple vineyards. This is a choice by the winemaker to bring you the best wine possible to your glass, to create a symphony of flavour.
Due to their presence across six key-producing regions in Spain, they have access to grapes of the highest quality from each area of their blend, which is why The Guv’nor wines are the very best of Spain.
The resulting range is rebellious, with each wine having its own unmistakable character and unique expression.
The original red blend that started it all. It’s bold and fruity with a touch of vanilla from oak ageing for 3 months. Always a crowd-pleaser, it's great to drink on its own, but its versatility means it pairs well with everything, especially anything chargrilled.
A delicious wine that reflects the warm, sunny climate of its homeland. Bold and full-bodied, with a touch of oak from barrel ageing. Discover notes of ripe citrus and tropical fruits, which will pair great with the paprika spice of Chorizo in Spanish-inspired dishes.
Taste the ultimate upgrade from The Guv’nor, with The Guv’nor VIP. Using grapes of a higher quality, meticulously applied oak, it has an even smoother and fruiter taste. Enjoy bold flavours of black cherry, plum, and blackberry with a touch of savoury oak and mellow spice, like a Black Forest gâteau with a kick.
Meet the exciting upgrade from The Guv’nor Blanco, which uses high-quality grapes and ageing in oak to ensure quality and complexity. It’s an aromatic white with notes of zesty lime, grapefruit, and white peach, followed by flavours of passion fruit and yellow apple. Perfect with a Greek salad, salmon en croûte, or roast chicken.
The first single-grape variety wine from The Guv’nor family, and it’s clear to see why. After tasting the 2024, it was clear this wine was destined to be produced as a single varietal wine, and it offers a different style, being a touch softer than the original red blend. It has outstanding fruit ripeness, which is a key hallmark of The Guv’nor, and offers delicious blueberry and black cherry flavours. A great pairing for lamb, pizza, empanadas, or ratatouille.
This pink sibling in The Guv’nor family brings you plenty of flavour at great value. It has ripe flavours of strawberry, raspberry and nectarine with a fresh finish that’s great with seafood tapas. A truly remarkable blend.
Made from grapes from a number of Spain’s most popular regions, the grapes are carefully blended. This means the winemaker can break restrictive regional rules and create something special. This wine is just that. Expect delicate aromas of blossom, vanilla and stone-fruit and citrus flavours.
Bringing you incredible flavour at great value, this sparkling pink blend is unrestricted by regional rules. The result is deliciously ripe and fruity wine, with delicious flavours of peach, strawberry and raspberry.
