Decanter, 96 Points 

"This is a vintage that really suits the Barsac wines, because they have the concentration and richess that is inevitable with the heat and small yields of 2019, but still manage a grip and salinity that ensures brilliant balance and a moreish mouthwatering finish. Orange peel on the finish, this is great." 

Vinous, 92-94 Points 

"The 2019 Doisy-Védrines has an intense nose, though it does not quite have the precision of the Doisy-Daëne. The palate is very well balanced, a little fatter than its aforementioned Barsac sibling, a welcome touch of spice (lemongrass and ginger) surfacing towards its satisfying conclusion. Good potential." 

James Suckling, 93 Points 

"Aromas of dried apricot, pineapple, dried spice, stem ginger and sliced mushroom. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity. Pretty spice notes. Refined and fresh Sauternes. Hint of white chocolate at the end. Drink or hold."
