Yesterday morning at 10am, Cllr Martin Biermann the Mayor of Basingstoke cut the red ribbon marking the 185th Majestic store now open in Basingstoke. Here is Cllr Martin with Emma, Aaron, Jon, Jack, Rebecca and Ben from Majestic.

The team in Basingstoke can’t wait to meet lots of new people in the town and to get things off on the right foot they are giving away a free bottle Prosecco on the first six bottle purchase in store until the 17th of September. I say hurry while the sun’s still out!

There is also an opening raffle for their first Facebook fans. All you have to do is like their page and to be automatically entered into a prize draw to win a bottle of wine. Like their page here.

If you live in the area join Aaron, Jon and Jack for the opening tasting weekend from Friday 14th to Saturday 16th September. There are delicious Italian meats and cheeses to pair up with a wide selection of wines on the tasting counter. Yum.

On top of all their opening events, Basingstoke are also running the nationwide Majestic tasting events (more info here) every week in September.
