Tasting Note

The 2021 vintage displays remarkable intensity in the glass with dark, inky ruby-purple hues. Abundant fruit aromas of black cherry, blackberry, blueberry jam and black currant are interwoven with accents of baking spices, sage and graphite. A voluminous entry introduces sumptuous layers of chocolate-covered blueberry, tobacco, mocha, vanilla and toasted oak. The mouthfeel is concentrated and elegant, with round, vibrant tannins that carry into a commanding finish. A wine of immense staying power that will evolve favourably for many years to come.

Product Notes

DAOU Soul of a Lion is a luxurious and bold red wine that epitomizes the power and elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon. This extraordinary blend is crafted from hand-selected grapes grown in the esteemed Adelaida District of Paso Robles, California. The wine exudes rich aromas of dark fruits, blackberries, and hints of clove and cedar. On the palate, flavors of ripe cherry, black currant, and dark chocolate unfold seamlessly, leading to a long, lingering finish. The velvety tannins and well-integrated oak contribute to the wine's impeccable balance and structure. DAOU Soul of a Lion is truly a masterpiece that showcases the true essence of a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
