DAOU Vineyards Bodyguard Red 2022
The 2022 Bodyguard Red by DAOU Vineyards is a unique fusion of Petit Verdot and Petite Sirah, expertly crafted by Chief Winemaker Daniel Daou. Its deep garnet color exudes fragrant notes of juicy plum, berry compote, blackberry, and clove, complemented by subtle hints of pine, cedar, and vanilla. On the palate, velvety textures give way to a cascade of mixed berry flavors, ultimately leading to a medium-bodied, silky finish with bright tannins.
Blend: 66% Petit Verdot, 28% Petite Sirah, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon

| Toasted pecan, baked blackberry and cardamom aromas make for a soothing nose on this bottling. The palate is toasty as well, with espresso bean, blackberry and pepper flavors. |
