In our last head-to-head line-up of the year we picked some of our top favorites of the year and the big winner was DuMOL CHLOE 2010 Chardonnay. We had some of the most amazing wines in this 10 winery head banger – It included Evening Land 2010 Summum (96 WS $90.00) Tor “Durrell” (95 WS) [...]
2010 might have been a little cooler, but it was a great vintage for Andy Smith and his team at DuMol. I would say it rivals many of the great scoring wines, and might even surpass them. Production is down a little, but I still have good supply! I was DuMol’s FIRST retail account going [...]
This is already the 15th release of DuMol! I fondly recall the first vintage (1996), it feels like just yesterday. As always the Fall releases are the “gem” of the portfolio – and very limited!! Those who bought the Spring releases will get priority on these bottlings. Of course FREE SHIPPING* on six or more [...]

We will be pouring up to 30 new wines! Thus far, we have confirmed the following [...]
I only need to say Kosta Browne – now I have your attention. Yes, the wines from Jemrose are made by ace winemaker Michael Browne (From Kosta Browne), and in some instances a little DuMol (some assistance from Andy Smith winemaker at DuMol) was incorporated. Shane Finley (assistant winemaker at Kosta Browne) and Greg Bjornstad [...]
I visited with the nice folks of DuMol on a very sunny and hot May day; and tasted all the upcoming and future (barrel) releases. The wines (2009 Russian River) will be in stock this week! More than half of my allocation has already been pre-sold! So hurry, before you miss the boat of what [...]
One of Robert Parker’s favorite wineries, DuMol consistently produces extraordinarily fine wines sourced from California’s Russian River Valley. This region is one of the finest in the world for growing the Chardonnay and Syrah varietals that they have come to perfect. The 2008 production continues on in this tradition and Robert Parker has just released [...]
The holiday tasting was yet another great success, and my apologies for those who I had to turn away – it helps to make those RSVP’s ASAP! Our line-up was amazing, and the crowd was excited to meet many star-studded winery owners and representatives. I need to acknowledge all of them – Alondra, Arbe Garbe, [...]
Every year around this time since 1988, Wine Spectator releases it’s list of the top 100 wines of the year. The list just hit the bookstands and includes some incredible selections from around the world. Tasting each of the 13,000 plus wines they chose from would have me under the table in no time at [...]
