Daou Eye of the Falcon Reserve 2020

Deep, inky colour thanks to the Petit Verdot, plus dark, brooding black cherries and blackberries on the nose. Cedar notes, warming baking spices, and well-integrated tannins on the palate. The signature Daou characteristic of being bold and New World in style, but with a nod to the Old World, also. Drinking window: 2023-2035. Score – 91. (Brianne Cohen, decanter.com, April 7, 2023)
