Note di degustazione
The 2016 Doisy-Védrines has a clean and pure bouquet with wild honey, quince and grapefruit scents, just a light touch of Mirabelle and saffron. The palate is well balanced, with plenty of weight, unctuous in the mouth but missing a little acidity, especially towards that apricot finish. Just a little top-heavy compared to its peers, although that is the signature style of this Barsac. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

The 2016 Doisy-Védrines has a rich, intense bouquet of marmalade and apricot scents, although there is some SO2 that just veils these aromatics. The palate is well balanced with satisfying purity on the entry. The acidity is nicely judged, but some complexity and mineralité are lacking on the somewhat predictable finish. I have had superior bottles of this, hence the question mark. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
