We're excited to receive the new vintage of Lafage Novellum. This has been our best-selling French Chardonnay for years as our customers crave its delicious taste at a price that's hard to beat. This is a compelling purchase at $14.95 and always outperforms other offerings in that price point.
The 2024 Lafage Novellum is firing on all cylinders and continues a string of successful vintages. This has been a huge hit with our customers who crave its delicious taste at a price that's hard to beat.
Critics have continually sung the praises of this custom cuvee from well-known importer Eric Solomon. Robert Parker has written, "I've raved time and time again about the quality -and value - coming from Domaine Lafage's Jean-Marc Lafage." Noted critic Jeb Dunnuck has previously compared this cuvée to a high-end Chardonnay from Mark Aubert.
James Suckling gave this wine 90 Points and described it as being "juicy" and "attractively fruit forward with a clean and balanced finish." We completely agree!
The beauty of Novellum is it combines the perfectly-ripened fruit and richness you might find in a high-quality California Chardonnay with the brightness and minerality you expect in Burgundy. This combination makes it the perfect crossover wine which appeals to those who enjoy either California or French Chardonnay.
Domaine Lafage is on an amazing roll where everything they touch seems to turn to gold; they are producing absolutely gorgeous wines. Lafage first came upon our radar with Bastide Miraflors, Narassa and Cuvee Nicolas which have been huge hits. We emailed out the previous vintage of Novellum Chardonnay and our customers went nuts for it. We really enjoy this wine and feel it is an amazing value.
This is an excellent "Everyday Drinker" that you can open up during the week to enjoy with dinner or simply unwind with a glass on its own. Domaine Lafage's Novellum is a delicious wine, which would make a terrific case purchase.
JAMES SUCKLING 90 POINTS - "This juicy white has aromas of sliced peaches, pears and lemons. It’s medium- to full-bodied and attractively fruit-forward, with a clean and balanced finish. Drink now."
