The 2022 vintage—a pure varietal expression—opens with bold aromas of ripe blackcurrant and crushed blueberries, unfolding into layers of sun-dried fig, black raspberry, and juicy Damson plum. Notes of dark cocoa, spiced sandalwood, and smoked thyme weave through the expansive palate, enhancing its rich, velvety texture. Firm yet polished tannins extend through a satisfying finish, accented by hints of graphite, dried lavender, and a lift of candied orange peel. This sophisticated wine promises to evolve beautifully with cellar age.
Founded 26 years ago by an Iranian-American family settled in Napa, Darioush showcases quality with its signature Cabernet Sauvignon. The nose is dark, brooding, and angular in nature, with cassis, black cherries, dark chocolate, and sage notes. The still dark palate leans into tertiary flavours of dark chocolate, cedar, and warming spices. The tannins are squarely at the forefront of this wine and do not hold back. It is an assertive wine and welcome on the table next to a freshly grilled rib-eye steak.
