Region:Marlborough
A refined, small-batch Marlborough Chardonnay from Will and Rachel Hoare, crafted from 40-year-old vines on an ancient riverbed. Bright citrus and white peach are lifted by minerality and enriched with brioche from oak ageing. Elegant, complex and Burgundian in style, it's a must-try for Chardonnay lovers.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Will and Rachel Hoare
Will's wine career began with a rebellious streak - selling wine to classmates! Since then, he's worked at Cloudy Bay, Au Bon Climat, and Fromm, gaining expertise in single-vineyard wines. Rachel fell for Chardonnay while working with Burgundy legends. Together, they founded Novum to craft precise, small-batch wines, focusing on "sweet spots" within vineyards. Their Burgundian-style wines are truly exceptional.
"The grapes were hand-harvested, then whole-bunch pressed. We then focused on capturing the purity of the fruit, with minimal intervention, wild fermentation and 13 months of barrel ageing. We have created a delicious Burgundian style Chardonnay that has elegantly balanced the exceptional fruit character with the luxurious texture from oak ageing." - Will and Rachel Hoare, Winemakers.
