2021 DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles


2021 DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles

It’s been a couple years since we last reviewed the DAOU Cabernet for this site, but we’ve tasted several vintages since then as this is just a go-to bottle whenever you see it. 

Huge bang for the buck, and that was once again the case with this 2021 vintage at Costco for $20.99. That’s the lowest price we‘ve seen it at Costco, down from $22.99 a few years ago.

Retail price is around $30 and it is online for $25 at a few outlets including Wine.com.

We found quite a few 90+ point ratings on this vintage including rave reviews from Wine Advocate and Wine Enthusiast, and we think they are right in line.

This is actually a bit of a blend as we’ve noted in the past.  The make up this year is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Petit Verdot, 8% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc.

Our tasting notes remain similar to past years and that’s a good thing, as this wine continues to represent the great quality at a fair price you can still find in Paso Robles.

The wine is a medium ruby in the glass; nice combination of red and dark fruit, blueberry, cherry and plum with some mocha notes; medium to full bodied; spicy oak in the long, lingering finish.
