Daou Vineyards is THE blue chip, grand cru estate of Paso Robles. First identified by the godfather of California wine Andre Tchelistcheff as a crown jewel of ecological elements over a half-century ago, Daou's vineyards have been groomed and cultivated by brothers Georges and Daniel Daou toward the goal of crafting the finest wines in all of the Central Coast. Their success is evident from their entry-level wines to their reserve level bottlings.

The Realist Cabernet Sauvignon 2024 by Daou Vineyards, a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot, 7% Merlot, and 1% Cabernet Franc, is a rich and remarkably approachable Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose opens with enticing aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, and vanilla. The palate is enticing, with flavors of ripe blackberries, black raspberries, and cassis laced with accents of sweet baking spices and a generous, velvety mouthfeel that envelops the senses. Grippy yet refined tannins provide structure without harshness, leading to a polished, lingering finish. This is a Cabernet crafted for balance; bold enough to impress, yet smooth and inviting for any occasion. (from winery notes)
