Novak Novac 2024
An expressive red from the sun-kissed south of Moldova: the single-varietal Novac 2024 from Novak Winery combines the power of a characterful Moldovan red grape with the elegance of a warm vintage. Vinified from the Novac grape, the wine reveals a remarkable depth, a dark robe and a velvety yet firm structure. In the glass it appears in intense ruby with purple reflections. The bouquet seduces with dense notes of ripe blackberries, dark plum and sour cherry, framed by a subtle spicy-earthy nuance and a hint of ethereal herbs. On the palate the Novac unites a powerful dark berry fruit with an invigorating freshness and ripe, fine-grained tannins that lend the wine a wonderful balance and a long, fruity-spicy finish. This characterful red excels as an elegant companion to intense meat dishes – pink-roasted rack of lamb, braised beef or rich grills – and pairs equally well with savoury pasta dishes and mature hard cheeses. We recommend serving the Novac 2024 at 16–18 °C and letting it breathe briefly before tasting, so that its aromas open fully. An authentic ambassador of southern Moldovan viticulture and of the unmistakable style of Novak Winery.
