Merchant's description

Doisy-Vedrines 2001 is a Sauternes from the prestigious Barsac appellation, produced by Château Doisy-Vedrines, one of the premier estates in the region. This vintage is composed predominantly of Sémillon, complemented by Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. The vineyard, renowned for its unique terroir, benefits from the microclimate of the Ciron River, which promotes Botrytis cinerea development. The nose reveals complex notes of citrus fruits, honey and stone fruits, while the palate displays elegance and balance with a precise acidity that enhances the wine`s core. The finish is intricate and persistent, showcasing the estate`s dedication to refinement.
