Tasting Notes
Robert Parker
Score: 91-93 / 100 Neal MartinThe Doisy-Vedrines has a refined bouquet of lemon curd, dried honey and just a touch of quince, perhaps not quite as rich as recent vintages, but very well-defined. The palate is well-balanced, with a touch of lime cordial and passion fruit on the entry, and zesty acidity and impressive precision towards the taut, slightly spicy rich finish. Returning after an hour, this sample has enhanced clarity and volume, and subsequent encounters confirm a very promising Doisy-Vedrines.
Jancis Robinson
Score: 17 / 20Mid gold. Very rich and heady on the nose. Quite exotic and interesting. Subtle and complex. Great weight and great sweetness. A freshness on the finish but green does not dominate this wine. Pear juice with a strong dose of lime juice. RS 145 g/l, TA 3.5 g/l. 13.65%
Bibendum
Score: 17 / 20Very forward, approachable and perfumed with attractive stone fruit characters and just a hint of tropical fruit. Lots of fun but lacking the complexity and depth of a great Sauternes.
