Darioush Cabernet Sauvignon 2008, California

Winery Notes
Inspired by the great wines of Bordeaux, our Signature Cabernet Sauvignon exemplifies how meticulous attention to detail in the vineyard can result in powerful wines with extraordinary depth, character and poise. Grown in the cool climate of our estate vineyards in Southern Napa Valley and atop the rocky slopes of Mt. Veeder, our Signature Cabernet Sauvignon integrates rich and concentrated fruit with earth and spice.

TASTING NOTES
Enticing aromas of ripe black currant, blueberry and cacao introduce this bold, yet harmonious wine. A supple and focused palate reveals round flavors of juicy blackberry, cherry and espresso. Finely knit tannins prolong the elegant, poised finish that is accented by hints of cinnamon, cedar and nutmeg.

Wine Advocate #192, December 2010
A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 4% Malbec and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature exhibits a dark ruby/purple color along with a lovely perfume of black currants, licorice and spice, an attractive texture, a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel and elegance combined with substance. This is a classic Cabernet Sauvignon to enjoy over the next 12-15 years.
