“Novellum is richly- styled wine, but carries such refinement and elegance! (This cuvée compares to a world class, expensive Chardonnay from famous winemaker Mark Aubert). This 2020 Novellum has a medium gold hue as well as a rich, powerful bouquet of caramelized lemon, honeyed almonds, and toasted bread. Medium to full-bodied, rich flavors, beautifully textured, and amazingly balanced…this is a no brainer purchase!”

There's a salty, racy counterpoint to the warm, rich fruit profile in this nicely balanced white, with warm spiced apple, hay and sun tea notes edged in fleur de sel and powered by succulent acidity. Open-knit and medium-bodied, with a savory dusting of dried thyme. Drink now. 23,000 cases made, 20,000 cases imported.
