To say we are ecstatic about carrying the wines from DuMOL would be a severe understatement. This estate has been working tirelessly for over two decades to bring consumers their best expressions of wine from the Russian River Valley, and they have succeeded like few others have! Partner, Winemaker, and viticulturalist Andy Smith has worked with some of the best in the industry, including Ted Lemon (Littorai) and Paul Hobbs.
DuMol's Chloe Chardonnay showcases the warmer central Russian River Valley district. The soils here are clay-dominant and amplify the wine's deep flavor and broad, layered texture. Older vines make more complex wines, and while other wineries replant their vineyards after 20 years or so, the vines for this wine are 32 years old! Aged for 12 months in 35% new French oak, we think this might be the best bottling of Chloe yet released. This magnificent wine earned a 98-point score from esteemed critic Jeb Dunnuck.
JEB DUNNUCK 98 POINTS - "The 2019 Chardonnay Chloe comes from the Russian River, yet it shows an almost Sonoma Coast-like vibrancy and minerality. Deep stone fruits, brioche, honeysuckle, and flower oil notes all define the nose, and it's beautifully balanced, medium to full-bodied, and incredibly textured, with a drop-dead gorgeous finish. This is another incredible Chardonnay from this estate that ranks with the creme de la creme of the vintage."
