Description
Neal Martin:The 2009 Doisy-Daene was spectacular out of barrel,however it has never quite reached those ethereal heights inbottle. Perhaps this rich, generous vintage did not quite suit thecrisp, tense style of Denis Dubourdieu’s Barsac? Compared to othersin this blind tasting, it comes across as more muted on the nosewith scents of beeswax, marmalade and lanolin, though the SauvignonBlanc is very expressive. The palate is very well-balanced on theentry with crisp acidity cutting through the viscous texture. Thefinish is rounded in the mouth, offering attractive notes of lemonsherbet and orange essence. Everything is very “contained” at themoment, although the tension suggests that it should age well.
