Loveblock Sauvignon Blanc 2022
(Central Otago, New Zealand) - [WE 92] [WS 90]

Winemaker Notes:

Harvested in the cool Marlborough mornings from our certified-organic Woolshed vineyard and made in alternate vessels such as concrete eggs, amphorae and neutral oak barrels, this highly decorated certified organic Sauvignon Blanc is a real stunner. Delicious juicy peach and papaya are complemented by a flinty minerality. Beautifully rounded with layer upon layer of texture and silky mouthfeel, this wine has a long, complex finish. Organic, vegan friendly and from a single vineyard. Grown with love, made with care.

Pairs with oysters, seafood, pasta and chicken.

Tasting Notes:

Color: Pale straw with a hint of green and gold.

Aroma: Complex and elegant Sauvignon Blanc bouquet, with citrus blossom and wild flowers, surrounded by crushed ripe herbs and pineapple.

Palate: Dense fruit core of juicy melon and peach complemented by hints of ripe herbs and florals. Beautifully rounded with layer upon layer of texture, this wine has a long, complex finish with plenty of minerality, citrus, ripe stone fruit and an umami quality.

Cellar: Drink now and through 2026.

Ratings & Reviews

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"Offers lime, pear and lemon zest notes that are elegant, but not shy on power, with accents of matcha, lemon thyme and a touch of crunchy sea salt on the juicy finish. Drink now. 35,000 cases imported." - MW (Oct 2023)

90 Points - Wine Spectator:
"There's a lovely lift of passion fruit, guava, citrus and floral aromas to start, backed by a gunflint and briny note. The palate is a graceful balance of texture, acidity, flavor and length. The long, lifted acidity and chalky bite to the finish make one want to reach for another glass. This is classy and food-friendly." - CP (Nov 2023)
