Tasted blind. Very sweet and rich on the nose. Lively with lots of botrytis. Edgy! Lively, toasty undertow. But not that long. (JR)

The 2015 Daisy-Védrines has a "sunny" bouquet with finely delineated wild honey, dried peach and saffron aromas emerging with time. The palate is well balanced, tensile and linear, with pure botrytized fruit and a vibrant, honeyed finish that delivers just the right amount of tension. The 2015 is excellent. Tasted blind at the 2015 Bordeaux Ten-Year-On tasting at Farr Vintners.
The 2015 Doisy-Védrines is a little deeper in color and the bouquet sports a greater level of botrytis than its peers. For me, this does not quite have the precision and mineralité of Doisy-Daëne. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite precise and focused with a touch of spice toward the finish. This is a Sauternes where the quality is weighted more toward the mouth than the nose, but I can see some upswing with bottle age. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
