Red Wine Contains Wonder Drug

You can read these articles just about every week stating that red wine is either good for you or bad for you. Probably everything in moderation is the key though, and personally I believe that moderate drinking of red wine is on the whole good for you.

The latest item I read suggests that red wine contains a key antioxidant called resveratrol. A professor from the University of Queensland said:

The breadth of benefits is remarkable: cancer prevention, protection of the heart and brain from damage,reducing age-related diseases such as inflammation, reversing diabetes and obesity and many more.

Wow, sounds amazing …think I’ll have a small glass tonight!

Booze Cruise With Free Ferry Tickets

I’m sure you’ve all heard of the phrase booze cruise before but have you actually done one? I haven’t yet but a friend of mine who sells vans has suggested that we should use one of his big vans and stock up on cheaper wine and beer.

Did you know that Majestic Wine also run a “Majestic in France” service?

Wine & Beer World is the cross-Channel arm of Majestic Wine Warehouses Ltd. As the UK’s biggest wine warehouse chain, Majestic have applied their wealth of wine retailing expertise to Wine & Beer World’s Calais superstore, as well as stores close to the Eurotunnel terminal in Coquelles, and in Cherbourg.

Pre-order Service

If you’re planning a large order for a wedding or party, or just stocking up, pre-ordering gives you the peace of mind that your wine is reserved for you. What’s more, Majestic staff will pick your order and prepare it for collection on a date of your choice, giving you more time to enjoy a great day out in France. Orders can be placed online right here.

Majestic accept payment in sterling so customers can know exactly how much they have spent without the confusion of exchange rates. Customers can also benefit from avoiding the UK duty on alcohol!

Free Ferry Crossing when you Pre-Order

Majestic’s pre-ordering service guarantees your order, saves you time, and offers fantastic travel discounts! For all pre-orders over £300, choose from a FREE car ferry day trip crossing with SeaFrance or, if you prefer the tunnel or are travelling to Cherbourg, a £30 discount towards your travel expenses. Even better, increase your order to £800 and Majestic will give you £90 off or pay for a van crossing with SeaFrance! Full terms and conditions can be seen on the site.
