DAOU Sequentis Reserve Merlot is a luxuriously rich red wine from Paso Robles, California's Central Coast. Crafted by DAOU Vineyards, this 750ml bottle showcases the exceptional terroir of Paso Robles through concentrated flavors and an elegant, velvety texture.

On the nose, the wine presents a fragrant bouquet of black cherry, plum, boysenberry, and dark chocolate with hints of cassis and black olive. Layers of complexity emerge with suggestions of spicy currant, dried herb, crushed gravel, and vanilla. The palate delivers bold flavors of plum and cherry, with traces of black raspberry and blueberry, complemented by notes of toasty oak, dark roast espresso, and lavender potpourri. Cedar and spice add depth to the long, satisfying finish.

The Sequentis is DAOU's Reserve-tier Merlot, representing a step up in concentration and complexity from their entry-level lineup. It is certified vegan-friendly and pairs beautifully with braised meats, hearty pasta dishes, aged cheeses, and dark chocolate desserts.
