Critic reviews
"The 2023 Doisy-Daëne has a bright and quite intense bouquet: dried honey, candle wax and quince, quite complex but it deserves time. The palate is just exquisite on the opening, with a viscous texture, orange pith and quince mixed with wild honey and a touch of white peach. There is real weight and density on the finish, another superb Doisy-Daëne and perchance superior to the previous vintage, tasted a few weeks later."
Neal Martin, February 2026, Vinous.com
"The 2023 Doisy-Daëne is redolent of pineapple, tangerine oil and passion fruit. Doisy-Daëne is usually a bit more floral, but the 2023 seems to be built on striking textural richness. As good as the 2023 is, it will be much more complete with a few years in bottle."
Antonio Galloni, March 2026, Vinous.com
"This shows aromas of white pepper, dried peaches and dried mushrooms. The palate is composed and refined, its subdued richness lifted by vibrant acidity. Angular and saline, with an elegant, precise texture and a balanced, savory finish. 80% semillon and 20% sauvignon blanc. This will improve substantially with age. Drink or hold."
James Suckling, January 2026, JamesSuckling.com
"This is so good, as it was En Primeur, luscious, concentrated, totally delicious, silky but not overly sweet, with pink grapefruit, grated ginger, boom. An exceptional wine from the Dubourdieu family."
