Tasting notes
The 2022 Pinot Noir Estate Vineyard comes from high-density, Swan and Calera-clone vines planted in 2004. Grapes were harvested on August 15-16, well before the Labor Day heat wave. This has expressive, wild aromas of black and red berries, blood orange, earth, violet and botanicals. The light-bodied palate features concentrated, spicy fruit. Its mouthwatering acidity and powdery tannins give it a sense of weightlessness, and it has a long, detailed finish.

About this wine
DuMOL Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir from Sonoma Coast represents a masterclass in cool-climate winemaking. This California red wine showcases the distinctive character of the Sonoma Coast appellation, where maritime influences and challenging terrain produce Pinot Noir of remarkable concentration and elegance. The estate's commitment to quality viticulture and restrained winemaking allows the terroir to express itself through vibrant acidity and layered complexity.
This medium-bodied Pinot Noir displays the spicy, earthy character typical of premium Sonoma Coast examples, with violet aromatics and a precise structure that rewards careful cellaring. The 13.5% ABV reflects the balanced ripeness achievable in this coastal region. DuMOL's philosophy emphasizes sustainable practices and minimal intervention, allowing the natural expression of the vineyard to shine through in every bottle.
Versatile at the table, this wine pairs beautifully with duck, lamb, and beef preparations, while its earthy undertones complement mushroom and truffle-based dishes. It's equally at home with charcuterie and cured meats, or alongside creamy cheeses like Camembert and blue cheese. An ideal selection for discerning cellars and fine dining establishments seeking California Pinot Noir of depth and refinement.
