---|---|---|---|---|
Pale lemon-gold colored, the 2018 Doisy Daëne bursts from the glass with vibrant mango, green guava and pink grapefruit notes plus hints of honeycomb, peach blossoms and almond croissant. The palate has bags of freshness and energy with a lovely silken texture and long finish. Score: 92 - 94 Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 30 April 2019 |

Serious density and spiciness with a full body, lovely sweetness and a flavorful, spicy finish. Lovely botrytis. Score: 93 - 94 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 11 April 2019 |

Poised and focussed, this gentle golden wine is easily one of the most successful of the vintage here. It has the beautiful pull between sweetness and acidity that not everyone has achieved in this late-harvest year. The texture is luscious and silky, but the flavours are bright and heading towards tart, with notes of lime, papaya and passion fruit. It's very good quality, showing clear minerality with a sense of life and freshness. A delicious wine, great job. 30% new oak.
