2019 Doukénie Winery Merlot

Loudoun County more

4/6/2024 - theebigjuan wrote: 88 points

Deeply colored. Juicy with a touch of menthol. Bigger in the fruit and alcohol than my preference, as it drinks rather Napa like. Calms on days 2 and 3 but the tannins just never get a foothold.

Nose of Anise, strawberry, hint of smoky sandalwood. Sweet and bright.

Front of red cherry, sweet clove and a hint of cigar box? Tannins are barely present. Plum sauce and a hint of anise on the middle. Finish lingers a bit and the acidity which is narrow on the front becomes mouth watering and rounded on the back but has a touch of grace all the way. Finish also has hints of smoked meats.

It is almost chianti like in several ways. Not quite as complex as a good Bordeaux, but this is a pleasant wine and recommended.

A crisp wine with a touch of sweetness. I am not really a white wine fan but this is drinkable while keeping a brightly acidic character with bright sharp fruit notes. Clean finish.

Agree with the tobacco on the mid-palate. The mouthfeel is a bit thin for this style, but generous flavors and textures. QPR is OK.

2021 Doukénie Winery Chardonnay Barrel Select

Loudoun County more

10/16/2023 - Hondo701 Does not like this wine: 77 points

Informal notes from phone -

Nose - peach, melon
Palate - peach, melon, light oak, thin mouthfeel initially but builds a little with air and temp
Other - pale yellow, medium length oaky finish, they say aged in FO but come across as a little harsh and an overly prominent flavor, not enough acid and is a little flabby on finish, may be rough on this score but I was not a fan, willing to try again

2019 Doukénie Winery Zeus

Middleburg Red Blend more

9/6/2023 - Jfsiegel Likes this wine: 88 points

Nose of figgy jam, olive and notes of cola.

D2 nose shows rounder with sweet smooth notes of cola and dark fruit...almost jammy.

Palate of blackberry up front with velvety tannins and notes of orange on the edges. Black cherry and watery acidity on the finish. Very sweet wine but drinkable.

D2 strawberry up front with Blackberry and hints of licorice on the middle. Nice subtle acidity and a pleasant finish.

5/13/2023 - Jfsiegel Likes this wine: 91 points

A highly enjoyable wine. It burgeoning upon truly fine bit is drinkable without decant and stands on its own. It jist lacks the true complexity and grace of the classified Bordeaux.

Very dark for a rose. The eyes do not deceive as it is a more full and structured wine. The fruit is more in the background to cigarette and herbal qualities. Busy finish. Went well with roto chicken.

Bright ruby color.

Nose of Anise, Blueberry and bright Potpourri.

Palate of cinnamon, blueberry on the front. Smoky tannins, but soft ones, come in on the mid, with Tart cherry and a hint of pepper on the back.

bracing but fresh acidity. A light wine, but pleasant. Halfway between a Chianti and a Bordeaux.

1/20/2023 - capnfutsal Likes this wine: 88 points

To the nose, green grass, grapefruit and lemon grass, with faint lime/scallion/lychee/cat pee mix. On the palate, a very nice blend of lemon-lime, grapefruit, pear, melon, and straw. Rounder mouthfeel than expected with medium length. Lively still with a slight, interesting saltiness. Paired well with grilled seafood, including salmon. Good QPR.

Golden in color. Honeyed and tropical on the nose. Very rich on the palate. Overly honeyed and sugared with plenty of sweet apricot. Touch cloying on the end. Serve really cold and don't drink too much at a time.

Lush nose of Dark Fruit. Sweet fruit forward, with notes of chocolate and spices on the mid palette. Hints of clove and apple with pepper on a smoky finish. Velvet mouth feel to the whole experience which is highly enjoyable and clean.
