Tasting Notes
In the glass, deep red-purple hues reveal the richness to come. The nose offers an abundance of blackberry jam, blueberry, cherry, blackberry, rose petal, eucalyptus and licorice with delectable undercurrents of vanilla, coffee and chocolate. Lavish blackberry fruit flavors expand with notes of mocha, baking spice, cigar box and pine. Rounded tannins and mouthwatering acidity converge on a beautifully textured finish.Technical Information

Vintage
The 2022 growing season on DAOU Mountain was initially marked by winter drought conditions that were alleviated by rains in late March and April—a miracle happenstance that replenished the soils and set the pace for healthy vine canopies to come. A later- than-usual bud break was followed by normal spring and summer weather patterns through August. A sustained 10-day heat wave began in early September, prompting an early harvest that put Daniel’s winegrowing ingenuity, artistry and experience to the test. In the end, 2022 was a winemaker’s vintage, yielding elegantly powerful and balanced wines that prove the importance of mastering grape growing and winemaking.Vineyard
Hailed decades earlier as a “jewel of ecological elements” by legendary winemaker
André Tchelistcheff, DAOU Mountain was rediscovered by brothers Georges and Daniel
Daou in 2007. Their quest for a sublime terroir ended here, on steep slopes that ascend
to an elevation of 2,200 feet, all blessed with the type of calcareous clay soil found in
the greatest appellations. DAOU Estate wines have since grown to include our most
treasured vineyard blocks, earning worldwide critical acclaim and redefining what is
possible from Paso Robles.
