The 2015 L'Extravagant de Doisy Daene has a powerful, intense but very pure bouquet laden with acacia honey, peach and quince, yet very defined and not at all overwhelming - remarkable given the richness locked into this Sauternes. The palate is medium-bodied with sensual, rounded, honeyed fruit, plenty of botrytis as you would expect, but leavened with a keen line of acidity. The finish offers peach and nectarine mixed with wild honey and a dash of spice to complete a fabulous wine from Denis Dubourdieu.- Neal Martin (04/2016)
Very bright star fruit, pineapple and white peach flavors pick up yellow apple, quince and lemon peel notes along the way. Viscous but pure and refined, with a long honeysuckle edge through the finish. Best from 2020 through 2040. 125 cases made. — JM (03/2018)
