DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

HED40066 75cl 14.5%
This is the superb entry level red from the excellent Paso Robles producer, Daou Vineyards. The 2018 is composed of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc aged for 11 months in 60% new French oak. Deep, rich and plush, it is awash with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, cedar and smoked herbs. This is a classy and complex wine that punches well above its weight.

DAOU

Founders George and Daniel Daou began searching for the vineyards that would comprise the DAOU estate in the mid 2000s - their objective was to find the perfect terroir for producing world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. They eventually settled on an estate in the Adelaida District AVA in San Luis Obispo County, specifically a plot once singled out by oenologist André Tchelistcheff as being of great potential. 

It's rare to find high quality Cabernet Sauvginon in Paso Robles, rare even to find anyone vinifying the grape here, but the high altitude of the site combined with a forensic approach in the vineyard and winery have allowed the team at DAOU to produce some truly fantastic wines. The flagship Cabernet Sauvignons are dense, intense reds that are set to age for many decades. Mayote is a Cabernet Sauvignon / Syrah blend while the estate Chardonnay is a surprisingly elegant entry in the portfolio.
