A wildly fresh bouquet of violets, lavender, cooling smoke and sugar-dusted blueberries wafts up as the 2021 Pessimist by DAOU unfolds in the glass. It's soft-textured yet energetic in style. Candied citrus hints accentuate cooling mineral tones and crisp wild berry fruits. The 2021 finishes with impressive length yet lightly structured. Violette Pastille and crunchy mineral tones slowly fade. (Eric Guido, Vinous, May 2023)

Beautiful red blend. Enough body and balance of fruit, tannins, and smoke.

Plums and cloves, pairs well with cast iron steaks, pitbulls in tortilla blankies, and God of War Ragnarok
