 Producer Profile...
The Dubourdieu family bought this 14 hectare property in 1924 and produced the first dry white in a sweet wine area in 1949. Production is split between the two wines, the dry Bordeaux Grand Vin Sec and the sweet 2me cru Sauternes, using modern methods and judicious quantities of new oak. A tiny amount of the extraordinary L'Extravagant de Doisy-Daëne is made in the best years, and rivals Yquem in every dimension.
