Imbibe newGreetings!

Hello to all those who Imbibe

We have a very busy week so we thought it would be best we keep all of you in the loop. Also I want to let all of you know we just received our Fall Allocation of DuMOL Wines. Owner Kerry Murphy has been a friend from the beginning. We are very proud to represent these wines, which are in my opinion the finest Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs in America. With Andy Smith making the wines they will continue to shine. All the DuMOL wines are very limited so don't let me tell you I told you so come January.

Hope to see you at Imbibe this week, tell a friend.

David

 P.S. This week's events are at the bottom of this e-mail. It's our not-so-sneaky way to get you to read the whole dern thing!

DuMOL Chard Chloe 2007
2007 DuMol Chardonnay Chloe $69.99
Wine Advocate Notes: Great fruit characterizes the 2007 Chardonnay Chloe. Like all these 2007s, it is very fragrant, with exceptional purity and stature. The notes of subtle honey, white currants, white peaches, and hints of tropical fruit such as pineapple, as well as floral undertones and some crushed rock, all brilliantly frame a full-bodied, crisp Chardonnay with a layered mouthfeel, texture, and length. This is a stunning wine to drink over the next 5-7 years.

DuMOL Chard Isobel 2007
2007 DuMol Chardonnay Isobel $69.99
Wine Advocate Notes: The 2007 Chardonnay Isobel, which took almost a year to finish its malolactic fermentation, displays a slight greenish hue to its color, some smoky hazelnut notes intermixed with lemon butter, white peach, honeysuckle, and brioche. It is full-bodied, with great fruit, underlying minerality, and a sensational finish. Most of these wines seem to easily pass 20 seconds on the palate.

DuMOL Pinot Ryan 2007
2007 DuMOL Pinot Ryan $89.00
Wine Advocate Notes: The 2007 Pinot Noir Ryan (a blend of two vineyards, Widdoes and Abbot, also in the cold Green Valley) is a bigger cuvee. It exhibits plenty of black cherries, raspberry, plum, and forest floor as well as some damp earth, underbrush and spice. It is complex already, with an intense fragrance, medium to full body, and a long, heady finish. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016.

DuMOL Viognier Lia 2007
2007 DuMOL Viognier Lia $59.99
Wine Advocate Notes: One of the best efforts DuMOL has made yet with their white Rhone program is the 2007 Viognier Lia. This goes through full malolactic yet is bone dry and retains tremendously crisp acidity, giving uplift to the very substantial lychee, apricot, peach, and exotic fruit notes of this full-bodied, fresh, lively wine, which even has some minerality, something that the top Condrieus from the northern Rhone also possess. This wine should drink nicely for several years.
