2019 ESTATE DESSERT WINE

$100

The DAOU 2019 Estate Dessert Wine delivers a delectable expression of Bordeaux varietals grown on DAOU Mountain. A rich, deep color foreshadows intense aromas of blackberry, blueberry and candied apple coupled with toffee, butterscotch, roasted coffee bean and a dash of wintergreen. Hints of hazelnut and vanilla wafer round out the complex bouquet. Deliriously silky and smooth on the palate, this wine delivers luscious flavors of baked plum, pomegranate, dried cherry and blueberry compote. Notes of caramel sweetness and cashew nuttiness accentuate the fruit essences, lingering through a prolonged and opulent finish.
