Item Description
Novelty Hill Stillwater Creek Vineyard Viognier --2012
Perfumed notes of apricot, peach, white flowers and spice. A textured, rich and lithe palate leads to a balanced, juicy finish. Stillwater Creek’s Viognier is Entav 642, originally from Tablas Creek cuttings imported by way of Château de Beaucastel. It is planted on a moderately sloped section of the vineyard with large chunks of fractured basalt found throughout the sandy loam. A drought-resistant variety, it does well in the Columbia Valley’s dry, arid summer conditions and the region’s warm fall days and cool nights help preserve the grapes’natural acidity.
Novelty Hill Cabernet--2010
This full-bodied, aromatic Cabernet offers plentiful layers of ripe, fresh fruit. Deep and concentrated, with generous blackberry, cherry, and currant aromas and flavors, the mid-palate is rich and textured leaving a balanced, generous impression that lasts. The Columbia Valley is a diverse growing region that provides a wide range of fruit pression, and few Washington winemakers know the land as well as veteran vintner Mike Januik. Like previous vintages of this wine, Mike relies on Novelty Hill’s estate vineyard Stillwater Creek as the predominant source for this blend in addition to fruit from a handful of other top vineyards selected to intensify the wine’s complexity and mouth feel.
