    In a few words ...

    Château Doisy-Daëne wines are great sweet wines dominated by Semillon, renowned for the freshness characteristic of the Barsac terroir: a thin layer of clayey sands on a compact limestone bedrock that limits the vine's rooting depth to this level, so that in the event of drought, the plant can draw the necessary water stored over winter. The cool influence of the nearby Ciron also contributes to the great freshness of the wines. This gives the wines exceptional ageing potential. James Suckling ( 95 )

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    The robe can vary over the entire range of colors from pale gold to coppery gold through straw yellow.

    Aroma

    In the main aromatic field of soft and sweet Bordeaux we find the flower, the fresh fruits, the exotic fruits but also spicy notes and empireumatiques (wood, cinnamon, vanilla ...).

    Wine Floral | Soft | Spicy

    Taste

    The sweet white young are delicious, they are slightly jammy but still retain acidity. With age they evolve on more concentrated aromas, such as the bitter orange confit and small notes of salted butter caramel.
