Cabernet Sauvignon

2022 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

The Daou Cabernet Sauvignon of 2022 hails from the picturesque region of Paso Robles, known for its dynamic microclimates and rich soil. This red wine offers a full-bodied experience with a robust structure, making it a quintessential representation of Cabernet Sauvignon. Upon the first sip, you are greeted with pronounced notes of blackberry and blackcurrant, harmoniously intertwined with hints of dark cherry and plum. The vibrant acidity provides a bright, mouthwatering sensation that perfectly balances the wine's firm tannins. Subtle undertones of cedar, tobacco, and a whisper of vanilla from French oak aging add layers of complexity, enhancing its elegant finish. It's a wine that exudes confidence and sophistication, making it ideal for enjoying with hearty meals or savoring on its own. Indeed, the Daou Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable testament to the winemaking prowess of Paso Robles, reflecting the region's commitment to crafting world-class wines.

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
