Note di degustazione
Tasted at the château, the 2003 Château Doisy-Védrines has a slightly muffled bouquet with dried orange peel and melted wax aromas. The palate is full-bodied, rich and unctuous, though it needs more acidity and feels a little fat and laboured on the finish. This is enjoyable but I feel it is treading water compared to other vintages.

A little bit musty and complicated on the nose. For insiders only. Toasty and chewy. Needs careful food matching and not THAT sweet.... (JR)
Bright yellow-gold. Spicy, ripe, complex aromas of peach, apricot, orange and nutmeg. Juicy, shapely and sweet, with lovely inner-mouth lift and aromatic character. High-toned and expressive but also quite fresh and precise for the year. Finishes impressively long and firm. A very strong performance for this chateau, and a good value.
Some green notes. Not much nose. Just full opulence. Very, very big and satisfying, but without much subtlety. Very round. Some green notes. Still slightly astringent. (JR)
