L'extravagant De Doisy Daene Wine

France - Bordeaux - Sauternes - Gorgeous nose, really full and exotic, thrilling and vibrant. Vanilla, cream, ginger and salted caramel. Sweet and unctuous,.. dense, heady and opulent end of the spectrum but so well delivered and still with mouthwatering acidity...(Barrel Score 97)

Sauternes, Bordeaux, France- "A great L'Extravagant, apricot balanced by apricot pit, creamy citrus balanced by citrus peel and zest, all rolled up with white truffle and soft pepper notes. As ever with this wine, you wait for the hit of sweetness that seems inevitable..."

Barsac, Bordeaux, France - "Has a powerful, intense but very pure bouquet laden with acacia honey, peach and quinces. The palate is medium-bodied with sensual, rounded, honeyed fruit, plenty of botrytis as you would expect." [BARREL SCORE 96-98]

Sauternes, Bordeaux, France - "...powerful nose of pineapple upside-down cake, apricot tart, allspice and lime blossoms plus an undercurrent of manuka honey and cinnamon toast. The palate is super rich, concentrated and unctuous with a wicked backbone of freshness..."

Sauternes, Bordeaux, France- "Pretty lemon peel, grapefruit, yellow apple chutney and white ginger notes stream through in this sweet yet very sleek dessert wine. The finish has a porcelainlike feel and lovely purity, lingering with acacia and orange blossom notes."

Sauternes, Bordeaux, France - "It has a typically audacious bouquet of -thick- honeyed fruit that is richer and more decadent than anything you will find this year. The palate is unctuous on the entry with pure honeyed fruit interlaced with orange zest and peach."

Sauternes, Bordeaux, FR- "Richly rendered, with pineapple, tangerine and nectarine gelee notes carried by a racy streak of orange zest. The long, honeyed finish glistens beautifully, showing just enough tension under all the fruit to keep this balanced."

Sauternes, Bordeaux, France- "WOW-the nose is super intense, featuring notes of lime cordial, orange peel, pink grapefruit and guava plus touches of chalk dust, lime leaves and acacia honey. Incredibly rich, sweet and hedonic in the mouth..." (Barrel Score 95-97)

Sauternes, Bordeaux, France- " Scents of tangerine peel, mint, lemon confit, marzipan, jasmine and passionfruit are all beautifully lifted. Weightless and elegant L'Extravagant is wonderfully subdued in 2020."
