Château Doisy-Daëne, Sauternes Extravagant de Doisy Daene 2010, 37,5 cl.

Château Doisy-Daëne’s Extravagant de Doisy-Daëne 2010 is a richly sweet expression of Barsac, made in the celebrated Sauternes region. Produced in small quantities from exceptionally concentrated, botrytised grapes, it combines luxurious sweetness with the freshness and mineral character that distinguish the estate’s wines.

Tasting Notes
The wine shows a radiant golden colour, deepening towards amber with bottle age. Its aromatic profile is generous and complex, offering notes of honey, ripe apricot, candied citrus peel and tropical fruit, accompanied by hints of vanilla, saffron and gentle spice. On the palate, it is opulent and silky, with layers of marmalade, dried fruit and caramel balanced by vibrant acidity and a lingering mineral finish. The 2010 vintage has excellent ageing potential and can continue to develop beautifully for many years when properly stored.

Production
The vineyards of Doisy-Daëne lie in Barsac, where clay and limestone soils contribute both richness and a distinctive freshness. The grapes are harvested by hand in successive passes, selecting only berries affected by noble rot, or botrytis cinerea, which naturally concentrates their sugars and flavours. Fermentation and maturation are carried out with the aim of preserving the wine’s aromatic purity, concentration and finely balanced acidity.

Food & Serving
Serve chilled at approximately 8–10°C. This sweet Sauternes is a classic partner for foie gras, blue cheeses and fruit-based desserts, while its acidity also makes it excellent with roasted poultry, spicy Asian cuisine or dishes featuring caramelised fruit. Decanting is not essential, although a brief decant or time in the glass can help reveal the wine’s layered aromas, particularly after extended bottle ageing.

Producer
Château Doisy-Daëne is a historic estate in Barsac and was classified as a Deuxième Cru in the 1855 classification of Sauternes and Barsac. The property is renowned for producing elegant, intensely sweet wines that balance botrytis-driven richness with freshness and precision. Its reputation has been closely associated with the Dubourdieu family, whose work helped establish Doisy-Daëne as one of the leading names in the region.
