Château Doisy-Daëne
Barsac Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend
Apricot and honey. Some nice notes but lacking a little energy and definition.

For over 80 years three generations of Dubourdieu’s have produced sweet white wines: Georges (1924-1948), Pierre (1949-1999) and Denis since 2000. Bouquet of ripe sweet stone fruits and sweet floral scents. On the palate peach, apricot and honey flavors adding in some nutty sweet oak encompassed by complex botrytis, "noble rot" fruit. Lingering finish ending with sweet smoky character. Very Nice, best of the vertical I tasted. Tasting Sample!

Aug 4th, 2018Doisy is known for its nose and being a heavy dense wine. This wine lives up to that. It was made with 80% semillon and 20% Sauvignon. A slight taste of alcohol. A lot of botrytis with dried apricots.
