Winery Information:  The Novaia family first settled in their 15th Century farmhouse in the late 1800s, when Paulo Vaona produced his first vintage. The Novaia vineyards are located 250-300 metres above sea level in the Marona di Valpolicella area, on top of a gentle and sunny hill. At Novaia they continue century old traditions passed down through the generations. This bijoux organic 7 hectare estate combines 3 vineyards all with their own distinct personality. The winery completed its transition from traditional farming to certified organic status with the 2014 harvest.
