Dumol’s wines are highly allocated and extremely hard to get. The breadth of high-quality, complex Chardonnay they have consistently produced is stunning.We have just secured a tiny amount of the 2022 Dumol Estate Chardonnay at a great price . Dumol’s Estate Chardonnay famous for it depth, richness and concentration. The grapes are small with thick skins, producing a high level of fruit extract, which translates to deep texture and structure in the wine itself. Concentration allied to freshness is the essence of this wine, and it ages beautifully in bottle for ten to twelve years.
