2019 | Daou Vineyards | Sauvignon Blanc

Racy crushed citrus, tart pineapple, and a touch of minerality all emerge from the medium-bodied 2019 Sauvignon Blanc, which has bright acidity and a clean, crisp finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc contains 19% Sémillon and was aged seven months in 50% new French oak. The nose opens with poached pears scents accented by beeswax, lychee, grapefruit and flowers. The medium-bodied palate has a great balance of bright fruit character and phenolic texture, and it finishes with good freshness and length.

• Wine Enthusiast: Crisp aromas of peach, cut grass and chiseled rock make for a refreshing nose. There is firm tension to the palate, where a ripe peach element is balanced by a light green-pepper accent.

Producer Information

Daou Vineyards is a California winery in the Adelaida District AVA of Paso Robles. It is most closely associated with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant Bordeaux-style blends. Daou also makes wine from some familiar Rhône grapes including Syrah, Viognier, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne. The portfolio also features Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The wine portfolio is divided into four tiers at different price points. The top-level Estate Collection is, as the name suggests, made from estate-grown fruit. The estate was established in 2007 by brothers George and Daniel Daou, who had previously built a successful IT business. The initial property consisted of a section of land that had once been part of the Hoffman Mountain Ranch. In 2012 the brothers bought the rest of the Hoffman property which increased their vineyard holdings to 86 hectares (212 acres). The Hoffman Ranch had been the first modern commercial winery in Paso Robles after Prohibition. It was established by Stanley Hoffman with help from prominent Californian winemaker André Tchelistcheff.
