A full range of more than 1,250 wines, including almost 400 fine wines, will be available.

Majestic Wine said it is reviewing its commercial arm, which supplies wine to businesses, after seeing sales growth flatline and profit margins come under pressure as the first half of the year proved “even more challenging”.
