New wine shop opens in place of famous butchers in Oxfordshire
Majestic has officially opened a new wine store at a former butcher's shop in Oxfordshire. The 1,680 sq ft store, which the specialist wine retailer has taken on, is located on Thame's High Street and opens today (Friday, July 4). Formerly Newitt's of Thame, the unit was a much-loved butcher famous in the local community and beyond for its award-winning pies and meats. Retaining a number of the butcher's shop's features, the new Majestic store includes its black and white tiled flooring, wooden ceiling beams and tiled walls featuring original murals.

Majestic has invested in building an extension at the rear of the store to accommodate its full range of more than 1,200 high-quality wines, beers and spirits. The store has a dedicated area for 65 Fine Wines and stocks low and no alcohol alternatives, soft drinks and a newly extended range of premium snacks including crisps, olives and beersticks. Majestic CEO John Colley said: 'Thame is a location we've been targeting for some time as part of our expansion plans, so we are delighted to be bringing our award-winning wines and expertise to the town. "We know there are hundreds of discerning wine lovers in the local community – many of whom already shop with us in Oxford, Aylesbury or online – and our new store will make it even easier for them to discover new wines, beers and spirits they will love.'
