Chardonnay shows up in some remarkably diverse places but few as breathtaking as the Roussillon, where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean. From vineyards, just a stone's throw from the beach and within view of the historic Mont Canigou, Eric Solomon and Jean-Marc Lafage have created Novellum, a refined, aromatic, and elegant Chardonnay that is aged in tank (80%) and neutral French barrels(20%).

A richer styled wine (I've compared this cuvée to a Chardonnay from Mark Aubert), the 2020 Novellum has a medium gold hue as well as a rich, powerful bouquet of caramelized lemon, honeyed almonds, candle wax, and toasted bread. Rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully textured, and balanced, this is another no brainer purchase.
