Two wines from Dunnes that work well with salads

Marlborough sauvignon is one of our favourite wines and with good reason. Coming from grapes grown in the cool maritime climate of New Zealand, the wines are an irresistible combination of clean ripe fruit and zesty lime acidity. Nautilus is one of the top estates in the region. Brouilly is one of the top 'crus' or villages in Beaujolais and produces some of the finest wines. As with most Beaujolais it supple and fruity, the perfect summer wine that pairs very nicely with a wide range of foods. The wine below is from a single vineyard.
