MITHŪN

Overview

Novelty Hill’s destination winery is a contemporary design celebrating wine’s agrarian roots as well as the artistry of fine winemaking. The honest use of a few simple materials, primarily concrete, glass and wood, blend the building’s interior space to showcase the wine with the site’s landscape, inviting the outside “in”. The design is a constant reminder that wine is inextricably linked with the earth: extensive gardens seamlessly flow into the winery’s private meeting rooms; the public tasting bar overlooks a barrel aging room and small-lot fermentation tanks. It is a winery that celebrates the art and science of wine while remaining true to the land.
