Château DOISY-DAËNE
2ème grand cru classé

Doisy-Daëne may never be the sweetest wine in its sector, but its expression and aromatic refinement are unrivalled. A pure Barsac, brilliantly orchestrated by Denis Dubourdieu until 2016. The 2014 vintage was rated 94-96/100 by the Revue du Vin de France « with pure fruit and generous liquor, it is balanced by the finesse and minerality of the soil »; 96/100 for the 2016 vintage « sparkling, crystal-clear fruit, the pure character of the Barsac terroir ».

Revue du Vin de France : 95-97/100 
Quarin : 96/100 «Couleur dorée. Nez intense, fruité, subtil et profond. Touche de poire. Bouche tout en minutie tactile complexe, avec un déroulé haut de gamme, évoluant sans faille sur une note de citron qui pointe en finale. Tout caresse, minutieux, gras, fondant. Ensemble d'une magnifique expression. »
Galloni : 94-96/100 «The 2023 Doisy-Daëne is all class. Lifted aromatics open first. Delicate and understated in feel, with fine balance, the 2023 has so much to offer. Tangerine peel, passion fruit, mint, apricot and a kiss of sweet spice blossom with a bit of aeration. Doisy-Daëne remains one of the most sublime wines in Barsac and Sauternes. »
Martin : 95-97/100 «The 2023 Doisy-Daëne, takes time to unfurl on the nose. Notes of lemon curd, dried peach and a touch of marmalade are all nicely defined, developing subtle pithy elements with aeration. The palate is just wonderful. Very harmonious with perfectly judged acidity, it's extremely pure with a tensile finish. This is Barsac in full flight. It will be outstanding once bottled. Bravo! »
