Holly Ninnes
Head of Wine
Holly’s love of food and wine developed while working in restaurants in her home county of Cornwall, and in Yorkshire, before moving to the shop floors of Majestic Wine’s London stores as part of their graduate programme. This immersion in the world of wine saw Holly quickly progress to Shop Manager and then into Majestic’s head office as a Wine Buyer. Here, she made her mark by bringing Portuguese wine, Porto 6, into Majestic’s range. Porto 6 was heroed by celebrity chef, James Martin, on BBC’s Saturday Kitchen. It remains Majestic’s best-ever selling red wine to this day. In 2017, Holly moved to Cheshire to join Conviviality PLC as Senior Wine Buyer before joining C&C (based in Bristol) where she was responsible for over 2,400 wines across the South American and Italian ranges - sold through Matthew Clark and Bibendum. She’s brought her expertise back to Cornwall and continues to build our enviable wine portfolio.
