Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
More serious and rich, with more mid-palate depth and richness, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is comprised of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc, 7% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot that spent 18 months in 80% new French oak barrels. Rich, concentrated and medium to full-bodied, it firms up nicely on the finish with ripe, polished tannin. Already delicious, it nevertheless has the depth and structure to evolve for over a decade. Drink now-2020.

Brothers Georges Daou and Daniel Daou set forth across the globe to find an unrivaled terroir for producing Cabernet Sauvignon, a quest that led them to a place of foretold greatness: DAOU Mountain in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles. DAOU Family Estates is a family owned and operated winery committed to producing collectible, world-class wine to rival the most respected appellations. Situated on a 212-acre hilltop estate in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles, this remarkable mountain was once described by André Tchelistcheff, legendary winemaking authority, as "a jewel of ecological elements."
DAOU Mountain stands alone at an elevation of 2,200 feet, rising from the heart of the Adelaida District in the rugged coastal range west of Paso Robles. The steep slopes here reach up to 56 percent, with uniform exposure to the elements across the estate. It is a terroir of power, purity, and symmetry with every natural asset necessary to pursue the perfect Cabernet Sauvignon—including calcareous clay soils that emulate Bordeaux’s Right Bank and a climate that mirrors St. Helena.
