DuMOL Flax Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

Our 2020 Flax Estate Pinot is the finest wine we’ve made from this site since leasing the property and taking control of the farming in 2017, and it makes a strong claim for the title of Pinot-of-the-vintage. The wine is full of classic black cherry intensity with a typical iron/ferrous edge that reflects the dark red friable clay soils in which the vines are deeply rooted. These mature vines produced a moderate crop which ripened early in this steep hillside vineyard that overlooks the Russian River itself.
