Loveblock Pinot Noir 2019
- Textured, savoury
- Central Otago
This young pinot is simply delicious - an easy and charming wine. Handpicked from Loveblock’s organically-farmed estate, which is SWNZ accredited, each clone was picked at optimal ripeness to contribute to a harmonious blend. Without boring you with facts about clones, it’s clear they’ve made some magic- from the nose through to the palate that both show vibrant red fruit, floral notes and savoury hints. The wine saw 50% old oak that has not impacted the fruit, but added a lovely texture.

Reviews
Winestate
“Delicious young, this single-vineyard red was hand-picked at Bendigo and partly (50%) barrel-aged. Bright ruby, it is perfumed and supple, with vibrant, ripe, sweet-fruit flavours to the fore, in a very charming style.”
Full price $45.00 from the producer.

Region
Central Otago
Central Otago is the New Zealand's highest and the world's most southerly wine region at latitude 45°S. It has cold winters, hot summers, cool nights and low rainfall, and is ideally suited to Pinot Noir, which covers 80% of plantings. The rest is mainly planted to Chardonnay, with smatterings of Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Gris. Expect character and intensity as the hallmarks of this marginal region.
