The 2023 Syrah Wild Mountainside shows just how compelling the vintage is here, for Syrah as well. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol, black pepper and espresso infuse the 2023 with tons of character. This is impeccably done. Drinking Window 2026-2038.

DuMol Wild Mountainside Russian River Syrah 2023 is a bold and aromatic expression of cool-climate Syrah from Sonoma's renowned Russian River Valley. Grown on steep, rocky slopes, this vintage channels both intensity and elegance, shaped by fog-laden mornings and sunny afternoons.
This wine reveals the untamed beauty of its origin with layers of savory spice, dark fruit, and a refined structure that promises both immediate pleasure and graceful aging.
