Made from gently pressed Grenache grapes in the classic Old World style, the 2022 Rosé presents a pretty pale flamingo hue with scintillating aromas of fresh strawberry, guava, crème brûlée, and honeysuckle. Subtle hyacinth and ginger notes are accompanied by cranberry, rhubarb, cherry blossom, and lemon meringue. The palate is exquisitely balanced, displaying a lush, crisp juiciness with flavors of ripe strawberry, papaya, nectarine, and mandarin orange. Hints of spiced peach, mango, and watermelon are complemented by red delicious apple, kiwi, apricot, and honeydew melon, all cascading into a clean, refreshing finish.
THE VINTAGE
DAOU wines represent our passion for approachable luxury. Winemaker Daniel Daou has cultivated deep connections with select Paso Robles growers for numerous vintages, allowing him to maintain absolute quality and consistency. The 2022 growing season was initially marked by winter drought conditions that were alleviated by rains in late March and April—a miracle happenstance that replenished the soils and set the pace for healthy vine canopies to come. A later-than-usual bud break was followed by normal spring and summer weather patterns through August. Finally, a September heat wave prompted an early harvest that put Daniel’s ingenuity, artistry, and experience to the test. In the end, 2022 was a winemaker’s vintage, yielding elegantly flavorful and balanced wines that prove the importance of mastering grape growing and winemaking.
Family owned and operated, DAOU Family Estates is committed to producing collectible, world-class wines to rival the most respected appellations in the world. Situated on a 212-acre hilltop Estate in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles, our remarkable geology, favorable microclimate, and high elevation were once described by renowned California Winemaker André Tchelistcheff, as “a jewel of ecological elements.” As stewards of this beautiful terroir, DAOU’s goal is to make unique fine wines that honestly and accurately reflect the potential of the Estate and to craft Bordeaux-style wines that combine Old World tradition with New World techniques.
As young men, brothers Georges and Daniel Daou shared the same dream: to live a life in wine. Their dream prevailed years later when they discovered what would become known as DAOU Mountain, an untapped world-class terroir in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles.
Ever since, they have poured their souls into creating some of California’s most noteworthy wines while cultivating a guest experience to match. In the end, DAOU is about family - and the truth that nothing brings people together like wine.

@mattykillpatty one thing at a time, eh? Revel in the summer hold and worry about comment sections later
(But yes, obviously you’re right they need to be merged)
Thank you, thank you for the Summer Hold Option! Nothing so crazy-making as getting a case of fine reserve that’s been sitting in a scalding 140F delivery van in downtown Bakersfield all weekend because the driver only comes up on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Hoping it’s not just a one-off for this offer…
Thanks @kaolis and WineDavid for making this happen
@rjquillin it’s not
@rjquillin @Winedavid49 well done WD!
And great coupon code. I hope @kaolis buys one to celebrate!
@kaolis. Great coupon code. Guess you’ve made an impression on WD.
Will the two comment sections be linked or will we need to go between them both to see what people are saying about the wine?
And, yay for coupons!

@klezman @mattykillpatty
Nope, no linking; this is the thread.
@mattykillpatty @rjquillin
Edit: nvm, I see you locked the other one.
So this is what @winedavid59 is doing with the space created by the mystery case blowout
