Winery Notes:

The 2021 DAOU Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is emblematic of Paso Robles as a world-class region for Bordeaux-style wines. Intense purple-red hues foreshadow deep aromas of black fruit, pomegranate, tobacco, mocha, and bay leaf. Trailing notes of clove, nutmeg, and vanilla emerge as the wine opens up in the glass. Opulent textures expand across the palate with flavors of red fruit, blueberry, and chocolate-covered raspberry. The overall experience is fresh and rich, concluding with velvety tannins and impressive length.

Blend: 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Petit Verdot

  • wa94-96

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is blended with 23% Petit Verdot, made entirely with free-run juice, and it will be matured for 16 months in 50% new French oak. Opaque ruby, it offers pure aromas of cassis, violet, grilled meats, desert sage and bell pepper. The full-bodied palate is powdery, energetic and detailed with a long, layered finish.

Beautiful cabernet character here with blackcurrants and blackberries at the perfect level of ripeness, together with hints of walnuts, cedar and black olives. Graphite, too. Medium- to full-bodied, so silky and polished. Tightly packed tannins but refined and delicate at the same time. Lingering finish. Even and long.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a total pleasure to take in as sweet mint and cherry sauce come together with hints of graphite, orange zest and blackberry. It sweeps across the palate with ease, silken yet lifted and refined. Crunchy mineral tones lend contrast to depths of tart red berry fruits. The 2021 leaves behind an air of mentholated herbs, white pepper and a tinge of dark chocolate, finishing long, complex and structured as fine-grained tannins resonate yet don't impede the momentum.
