A little sugary. I could do with more acidity and depth. Chewy. Pretty simple. Score: 16 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2015-2022 26 October 2011 |

Pale straw. Rather simple sweet aromas. And a bit of alcohol on the finish. Pear drops rather than pear juice - not a good trade. Definitely one of the less complex 2009 sweet white Bordeaux. Fades a bit fast. Score: 15 - 16 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2015-2025 01 April 2010 |

This is comparatively timid on the nose, giving very little away at the moment despite rigorous coaxing. But the palate is very promising, very well balanced, very focused with a fine citrus attack on the entry, fanning out towards an apricot, white peach and lime tinged finish that shows a great deal of unctuous honeyed fruit on the finish. This is an exuberant Doisy-Vedrines that yearns to offer pleasure. Score: 92 - 94 Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 27 April 2010 |

The opposite style (as always) of Barsac than Doisy-Daëne, slightly less pale, heavier pear and apricot aromas, rounder, more oily texture, great length too, less harmonious finish but great stuff for the ageing. (16.5 points) Score: 16 - 17 Decanter, Decanter.com 01 April 2010 |

Shows lots of lemon pie and almond spice, with hints of bitter lemon. Full-bodied, with a nutmeg and honey finish. Racy. Score: 92 - 95 James Suckling, Wine Spectator 01 April 2010 |
