Description

'The Doisy-Daene 2010 has a rather direct, crisp bouquet, with notes of quince, dried honey and beeswax. There is a sense of steeliness to these aromatics. The palate is ripe and sweet on the entry, with racy lines of acidity and a judicious touch of spice. In a line-up of Sauternes, it lacks the flamboyance and sensuality of the appellation’s more sugar-laden offerings, but it has a class that cannot be denied.' Neal Martin for the Wine Advocate, Tasted 2014

Château Doisy-Daëne stands as an esteemed wine estate nestled in the Barsac appellation of Bordeaux, France, renowned for crafting exquisite sweet wines. With a history tracing back to the 19th century, this estate, classified as a Second Growth (Deuxième Cru) in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, boasts a prime location and a terroir characterized by clay and limestone soils conducive to the development of noble rot. The vineyard spans approximately 18 hectares, predominantly planted with Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle. Guided by generations of expertise and a commitment to tradition, Château Doisy-Daëne meticulously hand-harvests botrytized grapes to create its signature elixirs. These wines are celebrated for their opulent sweetness, balanced by vibrant acidity, and complex layers of flavor, including honey, apricot, and citrus. Château Doisy-Daëne exemplifies the pinnacle of Barsac's winemaking heritage, consistently producing wines of exceptional quality and distinction.
