Merchant's description

L`Extravagant de Doisy-Daëne 2005 presents a unique exploration of Sauternes craftsmanship. This wine has 192 grams per litre of residual sugar, and carries an alcohol content of 12.3%. The nose reveals aromas of honey, mandarin and delicate yellow flowers, alongside hints of petrol. On the palate, it is notably unctuous with a complexity of peach and citrus notes. This wine is produced by Château Doisy-Daëne, a renowned estate established in the 18th century, known for its meticulous cultivation of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes predominantly for sweet wines.
