*Blend: 100% Pinot Noir

*The 2023 vintage was pure gold dust in Sonoma County. This means just heavenly Pinot Noirs.
Look no further than ex-pat Scotsman Andy Smith’s DuMOL Estate and his epic Finn Pinot Noir 2023 from the famed Russian River Valley. It’s the 24th vintage for this iconic Pinot, and surely one of the all-time greats with a fabulous 99-points from Jeb Dunnuck.
Andy selects his favourite parcels of fruit from his Bressay Estate Vineyard, and Occidental Road Vineyard. Bressay brings intensity, concentration, and oodles of freshness, while the clay soils at Occidental deliver depth and structure: the recipe for a sublime Pinot Noir.
The 2023 was lovingly aged for 15 months in the finest French oak barrels (40% new), giving this Pinot its incredible balance and serious ageing potential.
