winemaker's notes:

The 2008 DAOU Celestus opens with lush aromas of dark fruits, licorice and lead pencil that lead to an integrated and satiny mid palate accentuated by the French oak. The predominant Syrah imparts it with flavors of "garrigue" - with hints of lavender, sage, wild thyme and dark cherry. The Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot add structure and power to the wine leading to an elegant and long finish that that just keeps getting better as the wine opens up in the glass.

Blend: 58% Syrah, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot

alcohol by volume: 13.9%
critical acclaim:

"Glass-staining ruby. Intensely floral aromas of raspberry, blackberry, violet and incense expand with air. Stains the palate with sweet red berry compote flavors, becoming livelier and smokier with air. An exotic candied violet quality builds on the finish and adds complexity to the sexy dark fruit notes. This is very seductive right now."
