beautifully integrated acidity

you have ripe cherry

It’s already poised and tempting but the best is yet to come

The fruit is more immediate than the Ruchottes

2022 | Darioush 'Darius II' Cabernet Sauvignon | Napa Valley Counoise open-knit and quite expressiveThe flagship here, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Darius II sports a deep purple plum hue and offers darker currants, subtle blue fruits, sage, sappy flowers, and some cedary, tobacco, and chocolate notes. It's a rich, more black fruited, concentrated 2022 that has remarkable purity, ripe, polished tannins, integrated acidity, and a great finish. 95 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
