Muscadet comes from the Loire Valley, in the area around the city of Nantes, where the Melon de Bourgogne grape found its spiritual home back in the 17th century, far from its origins in Burgundy. This example is aged for 3 months on its lees for texture & complexity. Bright, clear, with yellow & green reflections. A light citrus character on the nose, with faintly floral touches. The palate is crisp & clean, with a fine texture & subtle spritz. Make this your default seafood wine! Oysters, white fish or prawns make the perfect match. ...

Made by Les Dix du Pallet, a cooperative of 10 growers based in Le Pallet, a 'cru' village in the south-east of the Loire region between the rivers Sevre & Maine. This is a rare, high-quality example of a mature, partially oak-fermented Muscadet. A unique style that shows plenty of evolved characteristics, including subtle nut, brioche & caramelised pear aromas that mingle with Muscadet's typical citrus & mineral backbone. Drink with fine fish or seafood. ...

Muscadet comes from the area around the city of Nantes, where the Loire Valley region nears the Atlantic coast, & has therefore developed a famous association with seafood. This example is made by Lacheteau, a family winery based in nearby Anjou. Clean, crisp & refreshing, this classic Muscadet has a backbone of lemon & lime flavour with a hint of minerality, fresh acidity & a delicately herbaceous edge. At its best with simple white fish & seafood dishes. Try with smoked haddock. ...

This is an exclusive blend created by Majestic’s rosé buyer, Matt Fowkes & winemaker Noémie Delavigne. Mythral plays homage to the fable of the dragon of Provence, ‘ La Coulobre’. The name ‘ Mythral’ is an ode to both the myth of this dragon & the Mistral wind that blows through the Provence region. With its light, elegant & aromatic profile, Mythral is everything you want a Provence rosé to be. Celebrating the hallmarks of the south of France landscape – fields of lavender & poppies, Mediterranean Sea, reliable sunshine – the wine is made from vineyards that stretch from the Varois hinterland down to the coast, with altitudes scraping 500m in some cases. Winemaker Noémie Delavigne trained in Champagne & has worked in France’s finest wine regions, now crafting this enchanting bottling with zippy flavours of red berries, white peach & citrus with a mineral finish. It makes for a great aperitif but also try it with shellfish, fresh salads or even chocolate. ...

Blended from 8 different parcels across the appellation, this wine gives an excellent representation of the ‘terroir’ of Puligny-Montrachet. The domaine was inherited from father Gerard Chavy 2004 & was split with brother Alain, who makes wine under his father's name. Neither overtly fruity nor over-oaked, Jean-Louis Chavy’s wines are extremely well balanced, emphasising the classic minerality of Puligny-Montrachet. A model of finesse & elegance, drink with simply flavoured grilled white fish. Alternatively, drink this pure wine by itself. ...

Renowned Chilean winery Santa Rita was founded in 1880. Medalla Real was created to celebrate Francisco García Huidobro, an ancestor of the winery’s founders. He established the first Mint in Chile & had a medal coined to commemorate his innovation. Mature vines are used to create this complex wine. Grapes are slow-ripening thanks to cool night-time temperatures, allowing concentrated flavours to develop before picking. The end result is powerful but elegant. It has intense aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry & cherry, combined with soft cedar & spice. It's supple & juicy with a long, lingering finish. Delicious with steak in pepper sauce. The 2020 vintage was awarded 90 points by Tim Atkin MW, & 90 points by James Suckling. ...
