The 2007 Doisy Daene Barsac Sauternes L'Extravagence 375 ml is from the Barsac region of France.
Delivering 12.0% ABV and 200gms residual sugar, Denis Dubourdieu’s luxury Barsac, the 2007 L’Extravagant de Doisy-Daene, does not hold back, born with a lucid golden hue with big fat tears (of joy). The bouquet is very intense but very tight at first, demanding time to unfurl in the glass at its own pleasure: white peach, apricot, orange-blossom and a touch of marmalade with breathtaking definition. The palate is full-bodied with a viscous entry, so pure and caressing with mellifluous honey, apricot and citrus lemon, wonderful delineation on the finish, the thread of acidity interwoven through that powerful finish with the length of an ocean liner. Brilliant. Drink 2015-2050. - WA, NM (4/2010)
Refined and balanced, with citrus fruit, pineapple and just a hint of vanilla. Full-bodied, medium sweet, with a finish that's tangy, spicy and long. Pretty and harmonious. Score Range: 92-95 — JS (06/2008)
Spicy nose began a bit swampy but showed ripe peach and melon aromas with aeration. Then fresh, spicy and pure in the mouth, with a lovely sugar/acid balance and an intense apricot flavor. Very harmonious wine, with a bright, fine finish.- Stephen Tanzer (7/28)
