California : Central Coast : Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon FULL BODIED, RIPE RED FRUIT, SPICE, LUSH, CHOCOLATE, HERB, NEW OAK Lush, round, and ripe California Cabernet Sauvignon. Great concentration of ripe red fruits, plum, savory herbs, and spice. Balanced, yet warm with hints of dark chocolate and dried cherries. Smooth tannins; drinking fabulously now. Sustainable

Exciting to taste the '15 vintage. Young, but beautiful. Will be a great wine two years from now. Rating upped from 9.1 11/5/16. Rating re-affirmed 3/30/17. Still young and powerful, but more settled and starting to shine. WS 93pts 10/2017. Tasting 4/20 - incredibly smooth now. Rating upped to 93.

Fruit forward, will benefit from more age. Was nice with a sizzling hunk of beef.

Strong red, lots of flavor. Great with tart cheese or steak.

A lot of layers; black raspberry, cassis, spice and licorice. This young Cab will only get better. Picking up on chocolate and plum too. Chewy texture.

A little too over-extracted and boozy for my taste (kind of hot and out of balance), but the flavors aren't awful for $18. #wine #pasowine

This was an excellent wine. It had both flavors of strawberry cranberry and maybe hints of tobacco and chocolate on the finish. A wonderful texture and was delicious right out of the bottle. This is my first experience with Daou Vineyards and I came away really impressed. They will certainly become a go to for me. The wine went perfectly with the prime ribeye steaks that accompanied it. It was nice to crack open a good bottle like this while my brother Michael was visiting from Northern California.
