TN: 2000 Château Doisy-Védrines - (France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Barsac)

  • 2000 Château Doisy-Védrines - France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Barsac (6/25/2009)
    – popped and poured –
    – tasted non-blind over 2 days –

NOSE: light botrytis spice; marmalade; slight hint of petrol. This smells better than it tastes.

BODY: orange - golden yellow color; full bodied.

TASTE: apricot; butterscotch; a very slight cardboard note makes me wonder if this is just a tad corked; a touch of smoke on the short-medium finish. A tasty wine for sure, but NOT an impressive Sauternes.

B: 50, 5, 12, 13, 5 = (85 pts.)
