Daou Cabernet Sauvignon

A dark garnet core with a bright ruby rim and thick slow moving legs. The robust bouquet of freshly picked black currants, ripe blackberries and fresh cut lilacs balance the nose beautifully with hints of nutmeg. The medium acidity on the front palate, which starts with blueberry compote and lingonberries and transitions into spice notes of clovers, is just a preview to the wine's wonderful integration of oak with fruit. The wine finishes with intense dark chocolate shavings.

Cabernet Sauvignon pairs nicely with foods high in fat and protein, including steak, duck, and game. It's a great complement to hearty stews, ribs, and dark, rich sauces.
