2021 | Loveblock | Sauvignon Blanc

A pretty bouquet of white peach, passionfruit and pineapple rind is backed by white floral notes and a grassy, fresh green-herbal undercurrent. The palate is clean and dry with prickly acidity and a slippery texture. A solid, food friendly example from two of New Zealand's iconic wine personalities.

Producer Information

Loveblock is a New Zealand wine producer with vineyards in both the Marlborough and Central Otago wine regions. It was founded in 2012 by Kim and Erica Crawford, who had previously created and sold one of New Zealand's largest wine brands, Kim Crawford. The Loveblock estate vineyard is located in the Marlborough sub-region of Awatere Valley. Here, a north facing aspect maximises the sunshine exposure to encourage ripening of the Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris and Riesling. The company also owns the 9ha (22acre) Someone's Darling vineyard in Central Otago, which is planted mostly to Pinot Noir in a variety of different clones. Beyond the familiar varieties, Loveblock has explored grapes which are not as common in New Zealand and makes wine from Gewürztraminer, Moscato and Chenin Blanc. In the winery, only certified organic products including yeasts and fining agents are employed to ensure that portfolio exhibits the terroir from which the grapes are sourced. Loveblock was officially established in 2012 after the end of a restraint-of-trade agreement, which had prevented Crawford from producing wine for a number of years following the sale of his eponymous brand.
