2020 Daou Patrimony Caves des Lions Bordeaux Red Blend Adelaida District Paso Robles

(96 Points) The 2020 Caves Des Lions comes from vines around the winemaker's house and is a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc brought up in new oak. Its inky hue is followed by a great nose of chocolatey dark fruits, espresso, Asian spices, tobacco, and earth. Full-bodied on the palate, it has notable purity of fruit and a great finish, with plenty of tannins.  Jeb Dunnuck
