The Wine
Shingle Peak Reserve is a special selection of Sauvignon from Matua Valley Wines. This groundbreaking estate was started in 1973 by brothers Ross and Bill Spence, in an old tin shed in the heart of the Marlborough region. They quickly gained a reputation for innovative, award winning wines - it was their Sauvignon Blanc that inspired Marlborough's Sauvignon revolution in subsequent decades. Today, the estate is as pristine and modern as any and has a huge international following. We're lucky to get 750 cases for our UK customers. Shingle Peak 2015 is really intense, full of lemon, green bell pepper and grassy notes with ripe passion fruit and pineapple flavours to balance. Enjoy with fish and chips, spicy Thai dishes or salade nioise.
