Introduction:
Daou Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning expression of the unrivaled terroir of DAOU Mountain, made predominantly from the finest vineyard blocks on the mountain. Aged for 21 months in hand-selected, custom-crafted French oak barrels, this wine showcases the visionary talent of Chief Winemaker Daniel Daou. Deep red-purple hues reveal the richness within, with complex aromas and flavors that define its luxurious character.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: An abundance of blackberry jam, blueberry, cherry, and blackberry, complemented by rose petal, eucalyptus, licorice, and subtle undertones of vanilla, coffee, and chocolate.
Palate: Lavish blackberry fruit flavors expand with notes of mocha, baking spice, cigar box, and pine. Rounded tannins and mouthwatering acidity lead to a beautifully textured finish.
Finish: Smooth and lingering, with a complex blend of dark fruit, spice, and subtle oak.
Pairings:
Pairs excellently with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or a rich cheese platter. A perfect match for hearty dishes like steak, lamb, or pasta with a bold tomato sauce.
ABV: 14.5%
