Daou - Soul Of A Lion - Cabernet Sauvignon

Description

Overview:  Georges and Daniel Daou are inseparable as brothers, best friends, and visionaries. DAOU is the realization of their childhood dream and a testament to the timeless bonds of love and family. The Soul of a Lion is a blockbuster that showcases how Bordeaux varieties are remarkably suited to the terroir of DAOU Mountain.

Tasting Notes: 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 Soul of a Lion will reveal its full magnitude after several years of careful cellaring.

Pairing:  Portobello mushrooms, roasted lamb, beef short ribs

Points: 97, Robert Parker
