Once an insider secret, DuMOL has rapidly evolved into an exceptional cult-favorite Sonoma staple. We’re simply elated to present several of their stunning 2023 releases, including several high-scoring Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs, and even one Syrah!

Since its inception in 1996, DuMOL has focused primarily on single-vineyard expressions of carefully farmed Russian River Valley plots. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reign supreme, but they also craft smaller amounts of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chenin Blanc, and even some Mencía. Their focus has always been vineyard driven, and chief winegrower and partner Andy Smith has built the DuMOL reputation on a hierarchy that always starts in the vineyard.

Energetic and complex, with flavors of Meyer lemon, white peach, toasted almond, and saline minerality reflecting its cool coastal origins. An essential expression of DuMOL’s estate vineyards—don’t miss this new release.

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.
