DuMol Bressay Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir 2023
DOZEN: $2,430.00 or $202.50 each
The 2023 Pinot Noir Bressay Estate Vineyard is a powerful, exotic wine. Dark fruit, graphite, lavender, incense and dried flowers infuse the palate with tremendous intensity and tons of pure, sheer power. Vertical tannins convey brooding intensity. The 50% stems are nearly buried here. This young wine has so much potential. (98) ANTONIO GALLONI
The bright ruby/magenta-hued 2023 Pinot Noir Bressay Estate Vineyard comes from vines behind the vineyard house, mainly planted to the Calera selection, and saw 40% whole clusters. The nose is more intense, with notes of wild raspberries, brambly herbs, floral perfume, and spice box. The palate is medium-framed, with refined, elegant tannins and a lovely, savory feel. As it opens in the glass, it gains in depth and complexity, and I would not be surprised to see this perform even better at future tastings. Drink 2027-2047. (95+) JEB DUNNUCK
A super-focused, single-vineyard wine with intense fruity, bitter and savory flavors forming a fascinating blend. Dried blueberries, black cherries, creme de cassis, amaro liqueur, spices and great depth. So much intensity is bundled into this compact, energized and age-worrthy wine made from a single block in the winery’s own Bressay Vineyard. Drinkable now, but best from 2030. (97) JAMES SUCKLING
