"Another Marlboro, developed with the eyes of a scientist and a love of wine."
This wine is filled with the owner Erika's beliefs.
Environmental considerations, a scientific approach, and depth of flavor - this is a bottle that can truly be called a flagship , expressing the core of Love Block's winemaking goals.
In Marlborough, where the "fruit bomb" style with its prominent fruit aroma is the norm, Love Block's Sauvignon Blanc is a little different.
The aroma is fresh without being too flashy. While the nuances of citrus, passion fruit, and herbs are clearly felt, the overall taste is calm and subdued . Compared to a typical Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, it is impressive for its rounded mellowness and restrained elegance .
Despite the cuteness of the label, the taste is surprisingly mature. Its rich style makes it the type of white wine that you want to enjoy slowly over time , rather than just chilling and gulping it down.
[Vinegar and Aging]
What is particularly noteworthy about this wine is the variety of vessels used for fermentation and aging : egg-shaped concrete tanks called " concrete eggs ," unglazed ceramic amphorae , used French oak barrels , and stainless steel tanks . By blending the raw spirits fermented in each of these different vessels, a single bottle is given depth and texture, as if multiple layers overlap .
Tradition and innovation, natural fruitiness and quiet complexity - this combination is what makes this Sauvignon Blanc unique.
[Characteristics of the field and cultivation methods]
The photo shows the Love Block vineyards, which are spread across the hills of Awatere Valley . This region is particularly cool and dry, with strong winds and large temperature differences between day and night , even within Marlborough, providing ideal conditions for grape cultivation.
Love Block respects the environment and the diversity of its fields, and uses biodynamic farming methods . Unlike the neatly trimmed fields, the fields are covered in thick, lush leaves and a variety of plants growing at your feet, creating a vibrant landscape .
[Recommended pairings]
The mild acidity and citrus flavor go well with savory seafood dishes , and the fullness of the wine is particularly pronounced when paired with dishes that have been cooked to bring out their sweetness and aroma.
- Oyster Ajillo
- Shrimp paella
- Steamed mussels in white wine
- Sautéed scallops with butter and soy sauce
- Galician-style octopus and potatoes
- Grilled squid with lemon
For those who want to experience a refreshing and calming alternative to Marlboro style, this is a cigarette that can be enjoyed naturally alongside classic dishes.
About the Winery "Love Block"
Love Block is a winery run by winemaker Kim Crawford and his wife, Erica.
Kim gained experience working in wineries in Australia, Napa Valley and South Africa, before returning to his native New Zealand in 1988 and working as winemaker at Coopers Creek for around 10 years.
He founded Kim Crawford with Erica in 1996, and two years later began exporting to the United States. The winery has since gained global acclaim, including being repeatedly selected as one of Wine Spectator's Top 100 wineries.
However, the couple wanted to achieve even greater things, so they sold Kim Crawford and founded Love Block in Awatere Valley, Marlborough.
Love Block's vineyards are located in Awatere and Central Otago. Erica discovered the Awatere vineyard in 2003 and fell in love with its "views" and "great potential." After many years of preparation, she began making wine.
The two value organic winemaking, which expresses the unique characteristics of the land. They create organic farms where animals such as chickens, sheep, and cows coexist with a wide variety of plants, and they make wine that is considerate of the natural environment while valuing coexistence with animals and nature. One of Awatere's vineyards, Love Block Farm, is BioGro certified.
Our Central Otago vineyards are located in Bendigo, the warmest part of the region, and are exclusively grown in Pinot Noir, thanks to the abundant sunshine and well-drained soils.
