Château DOISY-DAËNE Grand Vin Blanc Sec 100% Sémillon 2024 Futures

Since the 2023 vintage, Doisy-Daëne has been making a confidential cuvée (1,200 bottles) from its oldest Semillon vines, planted on the limestone plateau of Barsac. Entirely vinified in barrels, this 100% Semillon on limestone is an intense, straightforward wine, with intense aromas of vine peach and a lovely sapid freshness on the finish.

Bettane & Dessauve : 92-93/100 « Bouche légèrement perlante mais qui exprime un registre florale marqué, avec des notes de terpènes à la manière d’un riesling, jolie acidité et fruité agréable. »

Vinous (A. Galloni): 94-96/100 "The 2024 Blanc sec Sémillon syr Calcaire is another mind-blowing dry white from Doisy-Daëne. Rich, creamy and ample, with all the freshness and brilliance conferred by the limestone soils of Barsac, the Sémillon sur Calcaire is positively stellar. Orchard fruit, apricot, white flowers, salt and white truffle build into the resonant, palate-staining finish. This is world-class all the way. Stated simply, Doisy-Daëne's Sémillon sur Calcaire is a new reference point for dry white in Bordeaux."

Vinous (N. Martin) : 89-91/100 "The 2024 Sémillon Sur Calcaire has a more complex and, as you might expect, limestone-influenced bouquet compared to the Doisy-Daëne Grand Vin Sec, with touches of grass clippings and light patisserie aromas on the nose. The palate is well balanced with a brisk opening. It has fine depth with a slightly oily texture, although this needs a little more complexity to come through on the finish. I am intrigued to see how it will show once in bottle."

La Revue du Vin de France : 90-92/100  « Deuxième millésime de ce pur sémillon de Barsac, contrepoint du sec de sauvignon produit ici depuis 1948. Le boisé est prégnant à ce stade (barrique d’un vin) mais ne masque pas le relief et l’allonge de la matière, d’une densité supérieure, ferme de bout en bout, tendue vers son objectif final, autoritairement borné par une sensation de tranchant crayeux. »
