Elegant and expressive, this Pinot Noir offers a vibrant mix of red cherry, raspberry, and floral aromatics with hints of earth and spice. Silky tannins and fresh acidity give it both immediate charm and the structure to age gracefully.

About The Producer

Founded in 1996, DuMOL is a vineyard-focused producer of cool-climate Russian River Valley Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah, and Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from exceptional vineyards. They are a "vineyard up" winery with a fully integrated approach to winegrowing and winemaking. Working intimately with their many unique sites - some for more than two decades - they strive to present the purest essence of the vineyard and vintage. At 3,630 vines per acre, DuMOL's estate parcels in the Russian River Valley are among the most densely planted vineyards in North America.

Winemaker, viticulturist and partner, Andy Smith, has been at the helm of DuMOL's continuous evolution since 1999. He and his close-knit team of three employ winemaking that is classical and intuitive, responsive to the needs of each wine, with the least "technique" necessary. Andy explains, Each bottling is built in the vineyard. Soil types, microclimates, plant material, maturity levels, how the vines react to the growing conditions, how we react to the vines - there are so many detailed variables. The nuance, the depth and complexity of the fruit that results from those variables, that's what we aim to achieve and translate to bottle: purity, vibrancy, freshness - intensity without heaviness.
