2023 DAOU RESERVE CABERNET SAUVIGNON

DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 brings Paso Robles intensity with an elegant, polished edge. In the glass it shows deep ruby-purple color, then delivers layers of cherry and blackberry jam with accents of dark chocolate, tobacco leaf, and desert sage.  The palate follows with black raspberry, pomegranate, cherry preserve, and Zante currant, finishing with notes that echo boysenberry, graphite, and dried thyme.  Trade notes add black plum, frankincense, blackberry, cardamom, and espresso bean, with a velvety finish of chocolate-covered cherry, dried herbs, and toasty oak.  This 750ml bottle is listed at 14.5% ABV and is produced by DAOU Family Estates in Paso Robles, Central Coast, California.
