Novum, Marlborough Chardonnay 2023 barrel aged Delicate on the palate

Delicate on the palate

unctuous wine

juicy Chilean Carmenere with just enough red fruit crunch and hints of tobacco and tea leaf

it emanates more intense

The palate is rich and mouth-coating with grainy tannins that will soften in the decanter if you can't wait a year or two to open

Novum, Marlborough Chardonnay 2023 barrel aged Delicate on the palateA stunning example of New Zealand Chardonnay. Great freshness and complexity mingle perfectly together with notes of citrus peel, hazelnuts and sandalwood smoke. There are some slight reductive (smoky) notes but it is so refined. Think of it like a slightly more giving and modern style of White burgundy. It will not disappoint.
