DuMOL 2004 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

After reading about DuMOL in the Wine Spectator (where they were ranked as a Top 30 producer of domestic pinot noir), we tried our first bottle as the Albion River Inn in Albion, CA (just south of Mendocino).

It quickly became Marissa's current favorite pinot noir.   Thick, lush, soft layers of dark fruit and red fruit swirl with supple oak and spice resulting in a mouth-feel that's very similar to Williams-Selyem's.   

$70; 94 points

Bottom Line:   Outstanding, especially at such a young age -- it makes me seriously consider drinking more of my high-end pinot younger...
