The 2016 DuMol, "Wild Mountainside" Syrah, Russian River Valley was a Merchant's Pick

One Of The Finest Wines We've Tasted All Year!

December 06, 2018

This is one of the finest wines we've tasted all year!

Don't let the "Wild Mountainside" name fool you. This is a restrained, balanced and elegant Syrah that is right there - step for step - with some of the finest Rhone reds!

"While the Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs get most of the love from this terrific estate, don't miss their Syrahs!" Jeb Dunnuck

We tasted this Syrah on three separate occasions - each tasting evoked the same reaction:

"Wow!"

"Dynamite!"

"Stunning!"

High-toned fruit pushes and pulls with perfectly balanced tannins. Tiny wild berries, namely blackberry and blueberry, burst with personality. Dark cherry compote with plum, cacao, black pepper, underbrush and cedar box on the finish. A dash of mild and understated oak ties together all the moving parts.

Outstanding!

If you think Rhone, France is the only terroir that produces world-class, mountain Syrah, DuMol's "Wild Mountainside" will change all that!
