Lot 91 Details
CHÂTEAU DOISY-VÉDRINES 2011

Sauternais. 2ième Cru Classé
1 x raised label. 3 x wrinkled labels

Tasted at the château, the 2011 Chateau Doisy-Védrines has a more mineral-driven bouquet than the 2009, more reserved with scents of beeswax, honeysuckle and jasmine. The palate is fresh and vibrant with viscous honeyed fruit, a dash of spice and a flowing, harmonious finish that has only just begun to start showing what it is capable of. This has great potential and may vie with the 2009 as one of the modern-day benchmarks from the estate. This is a fabulous Barsac from Olivier Castèja and his team. August 2015 3,500 cases produced. WS 95 WA 94
