Score 95/100 · Drink 1994-2014, Robert Parker, Jan 1998
In 1990 Doisy-Daene produced 100 cases of a sensational luxury cuvee called l'Extravagant. It possesses considerable botrytis, awesome extract levels and intensity, and despite massive power, remarkable balance. Readers are unlikely to find any of this wine (bottled in a heavy 375 ml bottle) outside Bordeaux. Its medium gold color and extraordinary richness and power suggest it will age effortlessly for another 20+ years. Last tasted 11/94

About the producer

Doisy Daene
This Second Growth estate has origins dating back to the late 1800s. It is, however, under the ownership of the Dubourdieu family – who took over the Barsac property in 1924 – that Ch. Doisy-Daëne truly flourished.
