The DAOU Estate Cabernet is one of our flagship wines. When Georges & Daniel Daou came to DAOU Mountain, they were seeking the calcareous clay that is similar to that of Bordeaux. The Estate Cabernet perfectly highlights the exquisite terroir of DAOU Mountain and the skill of Winemaker Daniel Daou at creating World-Class Bordeaux Style Wines.

2020 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Each year, the DAOU Estate Cabernet Sauvignon showcases what is possible from DAOU Mountain in the masterful hands of Winemaker Daniel Daou. The 2020 vintage offers a highly perfumed nose of wild cherry, blackberry and currant with notes of plum, persimmon, graphite and cigar box, all underscored by a crushed limestone minerality. The palate is voluptuous and vibrant, presenting generous flavors of fresh blackberry, blueberry compote, kirsch and cassis along with espresso, dark chocolate, vanilla and hints of lavender potpourri. Firm, well rounded tannins provide unmatched structure and body, while an elegant, persistent finish lingers with suggestions of black raspberry, currant and spiced plum. An age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon that will reward careful cellaring for many years to come.
