About This Wine

More about the 2023 DuMOL WESTER REACH RUSSIAN RIVER CHARDONNAY: DuMOL's 2023 Wester Reach Chardonnay is a masterful expression of the Russian River Valley's diverse terroirs, blending fruit from four distinct sub-districts. This includes valley-floor vineyards and those extending to the cooler, high-elevation coastal ridges. Notably, the blend comprises 38% Flax Estate Vineyard, 22% El Diablo Vineyard, 16% Winners Circle, 12% Cornerstone Vineyard, and 12% Charles Heintz Vineyard. Each site contributes unique characteristics, from the valley's richness to the coastal ridges' vibrant acidity. The 2023 vintage benefited from a late and cool growing season, considered among the finest in modern Californian history. This allowed the grapes to develop nuanced flavors while retaining bright acidity and purity. The wine underwent fermentation and aging in French oak barrels (27% new) for 11 months, followed by 4 months of settling in tank. The result is a Chardonnay with soaring aromatic intensity, featuring notes of white flowers, thyme, aniseed, ginger, and citrus fruits. On the palate, it offers flavors of lime juice, white peach, hazelnut, and briny green olive, with a taut yet resonant texture and mineral-driven acidity. With a production of 4,600 cases, the 2023 Wester Reach Chardonnay exemplifies DuMOL's commitment to crafting wines that reflect their origins. The wine's balance of richness and freshness makes it approachable upon release, yet its structure and complexity suggest it will evolve beautifully through 2033. This bottling stands as a testament to DuMOL's dedication to expressing the Russian River Valley's character through meticulous vineyard selection and winemaking precision .
