The Dumol Wester Reach program started with the 2016 vintage. The idea here was to bump up the quality of the old Russian River bottling by adding some of the single vineyards they work with. This idea raised the quality over the standard bottling and is a serious Chardonnay. We love the style of duMol, notable European influence with California integrity showing off their skills in cellar and the vineyard. 2018 Wester Reach is a rockstar bottle of Chardonnay and a beautiful cross over for Burgundy, though this is the Russian River at heart.
Wine Advocate (Erin Brooks) 94+ points! "The 2018 Chardonnay Wester Reach comes from the Dumol estate plus fruit from Ritchie, Charles Heintz, Lorenzo and Dutton vineyards. It offers gentle scents of honey, oats, nuts and dried white flowers over a peachy core. The medium-bodied palate has an understated savory character, balancing yeasty and mineral touches and bright acidity, finishing long and mineral-driven."
