"Classic perfume of rosewater and Turkish delight, with a touch of jasmine and orange zest. Hints of guava, sweet mandarin and blood orange on the palate. Finishes with good rounded texture and nice acid tension. Drink now, up to 10 years.
Relatively unique in Marlborough, the grapes for this wine were sourced entirely from our family-owned Hillside vineyard in Lower Dashwood, where the elevated and windy location challenges the vines.
Perched right on top of the hills overlooking Marlborough's Awatere Valley, our Loveblock is far removed from the agricultural bustle in the valley below. From here you can almost see the end of the planet, the peace lifts you above your troubles. We are charged with creating the best wine we can to express this extraordinary place with its unique aspect. We follow our deeply held belief of low intervention farming which allows the wine to show its true and naked terroir."
5 Stars & Number 2 Cuisine NZ Other Whites Tasting, February 2024 (2021 Vintage)
"Medium coloured with a lovely savoury yet spicy nose that boasts layer upon layer of rich exotic fruit aromas with baked ginger and cinnamon spice. The precise palate is well weighted, juicy and mouthwatering with fantastic texture and seemingly infinite length."
Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, May 2022 (2021 Vintage)
"Fragrant, floral, spicy and seductive scents with aromas of baked apple and white peach, dried herb and white pepper corn. Silky texture touches the palate first followed by flavours of white fleshed orchard fruits, some tropical notes and dried herb qualities. A youthful freshness with a lively acid line and bright fleshy texture. Balanced and well made with a lengthy finish. Delicious and ready from day of purchase and through 2026+."
92/100 NZ Wine Rater, June 2022 (2021 Vintage)
"Attractive, varietal nose with a heady, high-tone perfume of fragrant rose water, Turkish delight, orange blossom, apricot kernel, and hints of marzipan. Medium bodied, elegant style with a soft mid-palate, clean freshly-sliced-fruit flavours and a succulent, pleasantly fresh acid finish. Nice balance and drinkability but perhaps just a touch too sweet."
