Richly sweet flavor profile of berry and cherry, with hints of spice and smokiness. Heavy but to too much so. Very smooth finish. A high quality wine, and more enjoyable than other Cab Sauvs that I’ve tried. — a month ago
Earthy and peppery. — 2 months ago
Beautiful Cabernet Franc, surprisingly mellow tannins, but still nice structure. Smooth and silky. Dense fruit. Very good. — 2 months ago

New vintage of this classic Daou blend. Now at 85% Cab Franc this is powerful fruit, dark and dense, but mellow tannins. Drinks beautifully. I am glad I am having this as part of the grand finale before Dry February. 💀😎🍷 — 3 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2015 “Soul of a Lion” pours a deep ruby/purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with powerful notes of cassis, plum, purple flowers, Fresno chili, tobacco, leather, vanilla and fine baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and silky. A fairly massive wine but there’s plenty of character to keep it unique and interesting. Drink now through 2035+ — 4 days ago
