Tasting Notes:
This flagship wine from DAOU Vineyards exhibits remarkable intensity with dark, inky ruby-purple hues. The nose offers abundant aromas of black cherry, blackberry, blueberry jam, and black currant, interwoven with accents of baking spices, sage, and graphite. On the palate, it introduces sumptuous layers of chocolate-covered blueberry, tobacco, mocha, vanilla, and toasted oak. The mouthfeel is concentrated and elegant, with round, vibrant tannins that carry into a commanding finish. A wine of immense staying power that will evolve favorably for many years to come.
Food Pairing: Ideal with grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, or aged cheeses.
