Unlocking the Magic of Bordeaux

The DAOU Way

Imagine a place where the grandeur of Bordeaux meets the vibrant spirit of California winemaking...

That's DAOU Mountain

Here, at DAOU Vineyards, we are driven by a singular vision: to craft world-class Bordeaux-style wines that truly reflect the distinctive terroir of this extraordinary mountain.

It’s a journey fueled by the relentless pursuit of perfection from brothers Georges and Daniel Daou, who believed this mountain held an extraordinary secret.

“We were the chosen ones to unlock the potential of this mountain.”

- Georges Daou

With every bottle, we aim to showcase the legacy of Bordeaux while embracing the rich potential of Paso Robles. We achieve this through careful cultivation, thoughtful selection of varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. DAOU wines embody both the power and elegance that define the Bordeaux tradition.

Taste the 'Why' in Every Glass of DAOU Cabernet

When you open a bottle of DAOU Estate Cabernet, you’re not just tasting the grape; you’re tasting the land, the dirt and air, the climate, and the vision behind every bottle. At DAOU, we believe that wine is more than just a drink—it’s a reflection of the place where it’s made. The Cabernets from DAOU are masterfully crafted to express our commitment to excellence and to showcase the special qualities of DAOU Mountain's terroir.

As Daniel Daou has stated, “We have the perfect climate combined with the perfect soil on DAOU Mountain, allowing us to make industry-disrupting wines. The soil and climate dictate the quality of wine.” With every glass of DAOU Cabernet, Georges and Daniel are inviting you to partake in a legacy of craftsmanship, terroir, and passion that dates back to their vision to produce wines that rival the finest Bordeaux wines in the world.
