Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Sunday, March 21, 2021 - From half bottle and same day I opened the 2011 Doisy Vedrines. The '13 Doisy Daene is a completely different wine. The nose is fresh but somewhat mature with scents of all things tropical including mango, pineapple, persimmon. I also get honeycrisp apple and apricot. The palate is spicy with a flavor of cinnamon from the botrytis, I assume. This wine is absolutlely delicious on the palate with heavy doses of apricot and spicy clove. The Daene's not heavy and overly sweet like the Vedrines, but instead ethereal with all the components in place and balanced; ready to go another decade, even from half bottle. What balance we have here! The '13 Doisy Daene will fill out and be a stunner for many days to come.
