Location & History
Château Doisy-Daëne, Second Cru Classé in 1855, located in Barsac in the Sauternes appellation, has been in the Dubourdieu family since 1924. For over eighty years, three generations of winemakers have worked here from father to son to produce great sweet wines: Georges (1924-1948), Pierre (1949-1999) and Denis since 2000.
Soils
The terroir of the Barsac plateau is a singular geological formation in the Bordeaux region. A thin layer of clayey sands known as "les sables rouges du barsacais" covers the limestone subsoil. This relatively uncracked slab of rock limits the vines' rooting depth to around 50 cm. During the summer, the finely porous limestone returns to the vines the water they have soaked up during the winter, avoiding excessive water stress. This type of soil gives white wines exceptional finesse.
Grape varieties
