2018 Daou Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Description: | Winemaker Notes \r\nThe 2018 Daou Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a shining example of world-class Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles. This wine\u2019s magnificent nose is quintessential Cabernet Sauvignon, offering scents of dark chocolate, licorice, blackberries and cured meats with a touch of cedar. The palate delivers an explosion of fresh, dark berry fruits. Flavors of blackberry, juicy black cherry, cassis and cocoa are underscored by lovely accents of blueberry and raspberry. A silky palate is nicely integrated with hints of toasty oak, graphite, mineral and forest floor. Ripe fruits and exotic spices linger on a generous, full-bodied finish that promises excellent age-worthiness.\r\nRobert Parker 93 Points \r\nAbout Daou \r\nVineyards Georges and Daniel Daou are inseparable as brothers, best friends, and visionaries. Daou is the realization of their childhood dream and a testament to the timeless bonds of love and family. In the early 1980s, Georges and Daniel moved to California to pursue their American dream.\u00a0The brothers enrolled at Uc San Diego and studied Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. Industrious and driven to succeed, Georges and Daniel followed in their family\u2019s entrepreneurial footsteps and started their own company, Daou Systems, a networking technology company that would revolutionize hospital computer systems. In 1998, after taking Daou Systems public, Georges and Daniel sold the company, and a new dream arose, a dream For years, Daniel had been making wine in his garage in rural San Diego, tending to a one-acre vineyard of Cabernet Sauvignon, and reading every book he could find about winemaking. He knew he was destined to be a winemaker and knew it was time to start a winery. Everyone told him he was crazy, but with Georges as his business partner, Daniel told his father, \u201cI\u2019m going to buy this property in Paso, and I want to become a winemaker, and I think I can make one of the best wines in the world.\u201d Without hesitation, his father said, \u201cGo and don\u2019t look back. Go full throttle.\u201d |
