Overview

Chateau Doisy-Daene is a Barsac estate that produces top-class, sweet Bordeaux white wines that are characterised by their finesse and richness.


The property takes the second part of its name from an English gentleman who bought it when the original Doisy estate was split up in the 19th century. The 18.2 hectares of vineyards underwent extensive replanting in the 1950s and ?60s, now planted to 86 percent Semillon and 14% Sauvignon Blanc, at a density of over 7,000 plants per hectare.


In 2000 Denis Dubourdieu took over the estate. A legendary figure in Bordeaux wine circles, Denis was best known for pioneering the region's dry white wines, improving their quality and reputation. Sadly, after being awarded the La Legion d'Honneur by the French government, he passed away in 2016. His two sons, Jean-Jacques and Fabrice have now taken over the running of the family's estates.


Chateau Doisy-Daene produces three wines: a dry white, a classic sweet wine and a special Cuvee, L'Extravagant, which is only made in outstanding vintages. Chateau Doisy-Daene is a quintessential Barsac with the emphasis on finesse, poise and elegance, rather than power and force.


Classified as a Sauternes 2me Cru Class, Ch. Doisy Daene''s wines can age gracefully for up to 20 years.
