Description:

Crimson with purple hues. Ripe black cherry with smoky notes and hints of mushroom peeking out behind rich fruit. Order from the Largest & Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! , Wine Spectator: This displays an impressive presence, smooth and succulent, with vibrant cherry, raspberry and apricot notes and touches of white pepper, anise seed and toasted cumin. The texture is smooth, with firm tannins that add an appealing traction on the finish., Wine Enthusiast: While this organically farmed Pinot isn't as fruit forward as previous vintages, it makes up for it with an abundance of fresh herbs: thyme, rosemary and fennel seeds, with some leafy secondary characters and red-berry fruit in the mix too. Mouthwatering acidity and crunchy fruit are balanced by sandy tannins.

Reviews: 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 Gew'rztraminer, 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.
