Harvested in the cool Marlborough mornings, the fruit for this wine was batch produced in small amounts, with soil variation within the vineyard determining the batch size. The batches were fermented separately until dry and a small portion of the juice was barrel fermented in neutral old French oak barrels. Post fermentation, only the best batches were selected for the final Loveblock blend.
Lifted aromatics of canned peaches, pineapple, fresh herbs, honeysuckle and elderflower.
The palate bursts with white peach, cantaloupe, Cape gooseberry and green apple underscored by green tea and a ripe herbal backbone. Long citrus and mineral finish, with linear acidity balanced by creamy mouthfeel.
