Wednesday, March 4th - Daou Wine Dinner
The first wine dinner of the year! Please join us to experience something truly special. Georges and Daniel Daou are inseparable as brothers, best friends, and visionaries. DAOU is the realization of their childhood dream and a testament to the timeless bonds of love and family. The family emigrated to Paris from Beirut and, later, Cannes in the south of France. In France, Joseph developed a passion for wine, and it was here, surrounded by vineyards and centuries of winemaking tradition, that Georges and Daniel first dreamt of a life in wine. On DAOU Mountain, Georges discovered his true calling. Here, he became the shepherd of a dream, a dream that this mountain’s wines would one day bring joy and pleasure to people around the world. He recognized the enormous potential and challenge contained in the mountain:
