A friend of mine has an exciting new restaurant venture in the pipeline and asked for my help in choosing their wine menu. You don't get too many requests like that in life, so obviously I was more than happy to help! We were guided through the tasting by Tom, who was friendly, knowledgeable and just so down to earth it was like having a drink with someone you'd known for ages. He'd picked us out 8 whites and 8 reds to whittle down to 3 of each, plus 3 rose and 2 fizzy to reduce to 1 of each, that fitted within budget. We could essentially try as much as we wanted of each then spit or pour away (or finish an entire glass) as we liked. Despite an initial urge to finish everything, I only finished the glass of the ones I liked best, as I wanted to stay useful! Tom was great at drawing out our tasting notes and opinions, even if I seemed to be in the minority on a few! I think we were probably the first group to bring in samosas to see how spicy food went with the wines too :) If you've got a big event coming up I'd definitely recommend coming for a Majestic tasting - they'll give you some great pointers and work to a budget (plus we got to take away the rest of any of the bottles he'd opened which was a nice bonus too!).

If I am not mistaken the shop occupies the space once occupied by wine merchant La Vigneronne. It is a short walk from South Kensington tube on the slightly charmless Old Brompton Road. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and happy to chat about wine. I had the pleasure of trying some interesting Canadian (!) wine from the Niagara Falls region that they were sampling. It was perhaps not the greatest wine I had but always nice to try. I also highlights the depth of the selection they carry. The South African wines are numerous and a lot that one cannot find in other places so good to explore new areas of South Africa. There is also a very good selection of French wines and interesting stuff from Portugal and Spain. The prices are decent but the 'cheaper' bottles do in general seem to be worse value then when looking at £15 and higher. A nice place but not worth a trip in itself unless you are on the look out for South African wines,

I'm no expert on wine - at all - so what I do when I come in here is ask the very nice French man behind the desk what he thinks. I tell him about what I'm going to eat with it or who it's for or what it's for and he makes a suggestion and tells me about the wine. I then tell repeat what he says to whoever I drink the wine with. The selection is really good though and ranges from mid range £6 or so to much, much more serious vintages. There is also a fridge with chilled wines ready to drink and a pretty good mix of champagnes. Pop the corks.
