Winemaker Notes
The 2023 DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon is described as powerful, complex, and layered, with a rich and weighty palate and a structured finish. It features aromas of black cherry, cassis, plum, and desert sage, with notes of cigar box, leather, and bay leaf. The palate offers flavors of black raspberry, spicy currant, and blueberry compote, with hints of Bing cherry and baking spices. The wine is well-structured with fine-grained tannins and a lingering finish of cherry, espresso, and vanilla.
About Winery
In the golden, oak-studded hills of Paso Robles' fabled west side, not far from William Randolph Hearst's magnificent castle, there is a man with a Homeric vision. His name is Daniel Daou and he is devoting his life and every imaginable resource to creating, first and foremost, a Cabernet Sauvignon that rivals the very best in the world.
Gracefully perched atop a stunning promontory at 2,200 feet, the DAOU Spanish Colonial style winery is embraced by a tangible serenity. Hawks wheel and bank while the all-day sun caresses close planted rows of lush, emerald green vines. The 100 percent calcareous soil makes no sound as it passes out nourishment and only a gentle breeze flows up through the Templeton Gap from the Pacific. The quiet is bewitching; you want to lay down roots here, just as the four-year-old vines have done. But the sense of peace belies the serious industry at work on this 100 acre estate. No effort is spared to create the luscious varietals and blends that flow from this limited production winery. This kind of synergy happens rarely: superlative climate and terroir, super intensive vineyard culture, and cutting edge viticultural practice. You're more likely to find it in Bordeaux than Central California. Coupled with the infectious passion and gracious, family style hospitality of the Daou brothers, Georges and Daniel, the result is pure magic. The kind of magic that comes in a bottle.
Winemaker Notes
The 2020 Chardonnay presents luscious aromas of pineapple, pear and Granny Smith apple with appealing hints of lemon chiffon, nectarine and honeysuckle. As the experience unfolds, the nose further reveals hints of star jasmine, nutmeg and vanilla bean. The palate is plush and graceful, offering mouthwatering flavors of peach, mango, kiwi and fresh Crenshaw melon. The rich fruit is perfectly complemented by suggestions of lemon zest and baking spice, while a voluptuous finish lingers with notes of pineapple, guava and hazelnut.

Winemaker Notes
The 2020 Soul of a Lion is a blockbuster vintage that showcases how Bordeaux varieties are remarkably suited to the terroir of DAOU Mountain. This wine explodes from the glass with a kaleidoscope of aromas and flavors, including blackberry, blueberry, black currant, dark cherry, sweet tobacco, and licorice. An added floral dimension imparts an integrated sense of elegance and freshness. While full-bodied with ultra-high phenolic levels, this wine maintains its evenness and poise through an extraordinarily long finish. Structured, balanced, and powerful, the 2020 Soul of a Lion will reveal its full magnitude after several years of careful cellaring.

About Winery
Domaine de Montille traces its origins back to the 1730s, but its modern chapter began in 1947 when Hubert de Montille inherited just a few hectares in Volnay and Pommard after much of the family’s Côte de Nuits holdings had been sold off. A lawyer by profession, Hubert revitalized the estate with a focus on restrained, terroir-driven wines, gradually expanding its vineyard holdings. His children, Etienne and Alix, later joined, with Etienne taking over management in 1995 and further developing the domaine, including acquiring Château de Puligny-Montrachet in 2012. Today, Domaine de Montille is recognized as one of Burgundy’s leading estates, balancing centuries of tradition with modern precision and sustainability.

About Winery
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC), founded in 1869 in Vosne-Romanée, Burgundy, is widely regarded as the most prestigious wine estate in the world, producing some of the rarest and most expensive wines from its legendary Grand Cru vineyards.
The estate’s history stretches back to 1232, when the Abbey of Saint Vivant acquired vineyard land in Vosne, later expanded by the de Croonembourg family in the 17th century, who renamed it “Romanée” and also purchased La Tâche. In 1760, the vineyard was acquired by Prince de Conti, giving it the name Romanée-Conti. After passing through various owners, the domaine was consolidated in 1869 by Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet, forming the modern estate. Today, DRC owns exclusive rights to Romanée-Conti and La Tâche, along with holdings in other Grand Crus such as Richebourg, Grands Échezeaux, Échezeaux, and Montrachet, producing both red Pinot Noir and white Chardonnay wines. Co-directed for decades by Aubert de Villaine and Henri-Frédéric Roch, the domaine has become synonymous with meticulous vineyard care, low yields, and uncompromising quality. Its wines are celebrated for their rarity, complexity, and longevity, making DRC the pinnacle of Burgundy and one of the most revered names in global fine wine.
