Out of stock online, you might be lucky to find some of this in your local store. The Parcel Series sees Majestic sourcing small, limited-production wines from top names around the wine world who need to clear space in their cellars. The winery remains anonymous, but the Majestic customer is given the opportunity to snap up some real bargains. This is a parcel of old-vine Barossa Shiraz from a single-vineyard, aged in oak for 18 months. It's big and bold, dark and inky with salty plum and black berry fruit and hints of smoky bacon. Very classy indeed, and a steal at the mix-six price, which is (unusually) 50% below the single-bottle price. Mix-six price: £14.99
