Daou Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 comes from the rolling hills of Paso Robles, where warm days and cool marine breezes create the perfect conditions for Bordeaux varietals. Aged for 18 months in 50% new French oak, this wine opens with rich aromas of blackberry, raspberry, and plum, layered with hints of licorice, thyme, vanilla, and cherry. The deep fruit character is balanced by a refined structure, showcasing the elegance and power that define Daou’s winemaking.  

Crafted from hand-harvested grapes grown in calcareous, loamy soils, this Cabernet Sauvignon delivers a beautifully balanced palate. Lush flavors of black fruit and chocolate-covered blueberry intertwine with notes of cedar, mineral, and subtle herbal undertones. The fine tannins are exquisitely rounded, lending a long, stately finish that highlights the wine’s complexity and aging potential. The 2023 vintage reflects a season of resilience, where late rains and a September heatwave resulted in concentrated, expressive fruit.  

At 15.2% ABV, this Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is bold yet graceful, best enjoyed in a decanter or poured into a large-bowled glass to unlock its full bouquet. Whether paired with a well-marbled steak or savored on its own, it stands as a testament to Paso Robles' ability to produce world-class wines with depth, structure, and finesse.
