This bristles with tarragon, verbena and chamomile notes, while white peach, citrus peel and yellow apple fruit forms the core. A stunning quinine spine takes over on the finish, letting the flavors play out while leaving a mouthwatering echo. Sauvignon Blanc. Drink now through 2024. 2,750 cases made.

The 2015 Doisy Daene Blanc Sec has a tightly wound bouquet that was not expressive in the glass, though the palate is more representative with fine weight in the mouth, grapefruit and lime notes with a pleasant twist of sour lemon on the finish. Give it a couple of years in bottle.
Producer
Château Doisy-Daëne
Château Doisy-Daëne, included amongst the Second Growths in the 1855 Classification, is located on the Barsac limestone plateau in the Sauternes appellation. It has belonged to the Dubourdieu family since 1924. Four generations have made fine white wines here from father to son: Georges (1924-1948), Pierre (1949-1999) and Denis Dubourdieu since the 2000 vintage – assisted by his sons, Fabrice and Jean-Jacques. The family is committed to defending and promoting Doisy-Daëne's image around the world. Denis Dubourdieu is also a professor of oenology at Bordeaux University and an internationally renowned consultant. Château Doisy-Daëne's 17.2 hectares of vines (87% Sémillon and 13% Sauvignon Blanc) are over 40 years old. The wines have their own special style, with bright fruit concentrated by "noble rot" as well as lively acidity, excellent balance, and delicate flavors. Doisy-Daëne's much-appreciated personality reflects both its excellent limestone terroir and a long family tradition of quality.
