This Barsac property has been owned by the Dubourdieu family since 1924. The 17 hectares of vines are over 40 years old and are made up of 87% Sémillon and 17% Sauvignon Blanc.
The 2025 Doisy-Daëne has an intense nose with plenty of botrytised fruit, wonderful delineation, quite nuanced this year, with quince and light white peach scents intertwined with saffron. The palate is well balanced with a keen line of acidity, so pure and quite minerally, yet your senses are just awash with that layered botrytised fruit that lingers in the mouth. What a stunning Barsac. Drinking Window

Bright gold in colour with notably sweet wood smoke overlaying honeyed fruit and marmalade on the nose. The palate is full, sweet and slick with membrillo, honeysuckle and tarte tatin. There are lashings of sweet wood but it works in the style, thanks to bright acidity and intense fruit at the core. Lots of polish but good depth, texture and length.
Dense and creamy, with honey and spice aromas. Medium-bodied with a delicious pastry and spice character balancing the sweetness. Elegant and flavorful.
The 2025 Doisy-Daëne is aromatic, lifted and sculpted. Green apple, pear, jasmine and crushed rocks are finely delineated in an airy Barsac that has so much to offer. The 2025 can be enjoyed young for its freshness, but it clearly has the energy and pedigree to age into an exceptional sweet wine over time. 2035 - 2065
