Flight 3 (1 Note)

  • 2010 Château Doisy-Daëne Grand Vin Sec 92 Points

    France, Bordeaux

    Light gold with a hint of green.
    There's some maturity on the nose, some sophistication, a hint of oak, delicious.
    Oak is evident in the mouth but it's very restrained, a lovely balance, characterful and creamy in the mid palate, a complex wine with a delicious long finish.

  • 2007 Château Ducla Experience 2007 89 Points

    France, Bordeaux

    Intense light gold.
    A lovely honeyed bouquet with a hint of oak.
    Oak in the mouth, slightly oxidised rendering the fruit deliciously caramelised, quite long.

    Slightly oxidised in the mouth but delicious, nutty, fruity, good acidity, drinking well - not for keeping.
