Tasting Note

Light straw hues gain golden brilliance in the glass. Aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, pear and honeysuckle enchant the nose with underlying hints of vanilla bean and peach gummy. The palate is astonishingly fresh, creamy and velvety with impressions of lemon zest, apricot, melon, light butter and tropical nuance. Vivid acidity brings energy to a long, rounded finish

About the Winery

DAOU

Nestled amidst the mesmerising expanses of California's Paso Robles region, DAOU Winery is a veritable haven of viticulture. It is a place where passionate artistry melds with scientific precision, resulting in wines of unrivalled quality and expressiveness.

The winery is presided over by the DAOU brothers, Georges and Daniel, who've imbibed their passion for winemaking from their Lebanese forefathers. The duo ensures that the essence of their heritage harmoniously coalesces with the terroir of the Golden State, yielding wines that are profoundly expressive of their unique identity.

Spread over an expansive 212 acres, the vineyard is punctuated with rolling hills. The environment, furthermore, blessed with a consistent marine layer induced cool breeze, provides the perfect conditions for growing Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux varietals. Sun-drenched during the day and considerably cool after sunset, these climatic idiosyncrasies contribute towards striking balance and elegance in the wines produced.

The winery is also renowned for its adept use of technological innovation in the vineyards and cellars. Forward-thinking practices including drone surveillance, micro-fermentation, and barrel experimentation fundamentally enhance the winemaking process and, consequently, the quality of the wine.

DAOU Winery also offers an exemplary visitors' experience. From sumptuous culinary offerings paired with exquisite wines, to the dazzling vista of the vine-swathed hills from the tasting room, it truly is a sensory delight. Whether you're a scholar of enology or a novice to the world of wines, a day spent at DAOU Winery is bound to be an enlightening and enjoyable experience.

All in all, DAOU Winery is a testament to the splendour of Californian wine-making combining tradition, mastery and innovation, resulting in wines that stir the soul and tantalise the palate. It's a magnificent spectacle of viticulture that's definitely worth embarking on, especially for those that appreciate wine's magical relationship with the land from which it springs.
