When Antonio Galloni published his article "Sonoma's Sensational 2021s", only one PInot Noir was awarded a perfect 100-point score. That wine was DuMOL's MacInytre Pinot. He called it “Unforgettable… magnificent… sensational” and “one of the greatest California Pinots I have ever tasted”. Now, for the first time, we are able to offer this wine alongside DuMol's "breathtaking range of 2021s".
Erin Brooks of the Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate shares Galloni’s enthusiasm for DuMOL’s 2021s, but for her it is the Finn Pinot Noir that “is the crown jewel in the DuMOL portfolio this vintage, offering unparalleled perfume, length and harmony… it's impossible not to take another sip of this dreamy Pinot Noir!”
Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW also awards the Finn Pinot an incredible 99 points which she ranks alongside the Hyde Chardonnay as her top wines from the line up.
And if the enormously positive reviews from the major critics isn’t enough… having tried the wines of DuMOL ourselves last year we too were seriously impressed. They are undoubtedly some of the finest Californian Pinots and Chardonnays that we’ve encountered, yet they are all priced accessibly – particularly when compared to top Burgundy. They come highly recommended.
“Winemaker/Co-owner Andy Smith and Associate Winemaker Jenna Davis presented a breath-taking range of 2021s. I was blown away by the wines I tasted from DuMOL this year. Two thousand twenty-one is one of the greatest vintages I have tasted here. That is evident from the very first wines in this line up. Despite drought conditions, the wines retain terrific acidity and tons of nuance. Interestingly, Smith reported that wines extracted easily in 2021. The Chardonnays are incredibly pure and brilliant. It's much the same in the Pinots, a stunning collection of wines that reaches its apogee with the Pinot Noir MacIntyre, one of the greatest California Pinots I have ever tasted. The theme of delineation and vibrancy continues through to the Syrahs and Cabernets. Most of the 2021s were in tank, hence scores are in parentheses. This is a very special set of wines that readers will not want to miss.”
