Get ready to fall in love with this gem from the Central Coast and iconic producer Daou! Our staff can't get enough of it, and for good reason - it's not just any wine. It's a symbol of the Daou family's determination, from surviving the hardships of the Lebanese Civil War to carving out a space in the competitive world of wine. With every sip, you'll taste the legacy of Daou. Don't miss out on this transcendent experience.
This wine has a lush palate of black plum, dried cherry and blackberry is supported by a firm structure with polished fine-grained tannins. Highlights of dusty leather, dried sage and truffle add layers of complexity that complement the rich, dark fruit. The finish strikes an impressive balance of power and grace, with lingering notes of currant, dark chocolate and crushed stone minerality that enhance the fullness of the experience.
