Château Doisy Daëne

Château Doisy-Daëne, classified as a Second Growth in 1855, is located in Barsac in the Sauternes appellation and has been owned by the Dubourdieu family since 1924. For more than eighty years, three generations of winemakers have worked from father to son at Château Doisy Daëne to produce great sweet wines: Georges (1924-1948), Pierre (1949-1999) and Denis since 2000.

Mostly replanted in the 1950s and 1960s, the Château Doisy-Daëne vineyard is over 40 years old. It currently covers 16.3 hectares, planted with Sémillon (87%), Sauvignon (12%) and Muscadelle (1%). Exclusively maintained using traditional plowing methods, the soil of the Château Doisy Daëne vineyard is not treated with any herbicides. Organic fertilizers are based on plant compost. On this Barsac terroir, Château Doisy-Daëne produces both a great AOC Sauternes wine and a racy and highly original dry white Bordeaux, the Grand Vin Sec du Château Doisy-Daëne.
