as far as I can tell there are three wineries releasing what they promote as Noveau wines here in Israel

(anyone know anthing different)

all three wines are made in limited amounts and are not available for export and the wineries are promoting or hosting parties around the country to celebrate their first release of their  2009 vintage and harvest

Binyamina, Tishbi and the Golan Heights Winery are all producing wines being released on November 19th (the third Thursday in November) as is the tradition in Beaujolais

each wine is being made a little differently than the others (in contrast to Beaujolais where it's made by the same grape (Gamay) in the same general method (carbonic maceration)

I'll post a little more as I work up information for a radio show I'm doing next week on rustymikeradio.com
