Château Doisy Daëne Barsac 2cc. 2019 0,375l
Château Doisy-Daëne is a 2nd Growth Barsac estate owned by the Dubourdieu family since 1924. Around sixteen hectares of vines grow on limestone-rich soils and are planted mainly with Sémillon, complemented by Sauvignon Blanc and a touch of Muscadelle. The old vines are farmed sustainably with a strong ecological approach. Several passes through the vineyard are needed to pick perfectly botrytised berries, which are fermented and aged in oak barrels. The bouquet shows citrus, white flowers, apricot and exotic fruit with honey and gentle spice. On the palate Doisy-Daëne is sweet, creamy and intense yet lifted by vibrant acidity, ending very long with the incisive freshness that characterises Barsac.
Barrel ageing adds depth and botrytis-driven sweetness, while the subsequent tank maturation preserves freshness and precision.
