Very good barsac with an excellent equilibrium between sweetness, tropical fruits, botrytis and acidity. Can be enjoyed now, or be kept for at least 10 years. Delicious!

Mushroom, honey, quince paste, and exotic, but already on a ripe and slightly evaluated... nice
palate is extremely balanced with great fruity acidity, sweetness never overwhelms nicely oaked, well rounded and sharp wine, enjoyable from now till 2035 :)

From 375 Light gold Quite lush white peach and apricot flavors (and pineapple) Almost syrupy sweet, but great acidity keeps this all in check. Rather fabulous young Sauternes. Drink in its deliciousness now or hold(indefinitely?)

The 2017 Doisy-Daene is so fresh and elegant I assumed there must have been an unusually low proportion of Sémillon this year - but that’s not the case as this is 90% Sémillon! The palate is admittedly more tropical and rich with refreshing minerality, but the nose really is quite floral and white peachy.

A little less intense than Chateau Suduirat but offered more complexity, with layers of pineapple, spice, honey and marzipan, and excellent acidity to give it good aging potential. LA UGC Tasting

Luscious, juicy, white peach, pineapple and apricots with a generous serving of vanilla, honey and nuts, this wine maintains the right amount of boost to keep all the sweetness up and on its feet.

Fresh, sweet, bright, lifted, honey-coated pineapples and vanilla bean in your glass, nose and on your palate.
