Wine Spectator: 91 Points
A fresh, pure, driven style, with gorgeous honeysuckle and acacia notes leading the way for Cavaillon melon, Jonagold apple and glazed pear notes. The long finish really sings. Very pretty.
Wine Advocate: 91 Points
Tasted at the château, the 2008 Château Doisy-Védrines does not have the same fruit intensity as the previous two vintages on the nose and comes across more resinous and understated. The palate is crisp and vibrant on the entry and goes some way in compensating for the aromatics. The acidity is very well judged and there is impressive tension on the finish: orange sorbet and quince fanning out in assured fashion. Enjoy this over the next 15 to 20 years.
