Barsac
See Barsac producers See a list of Barsac wines
Barsac is one of the communes of the Sauternes appellation (along with Bommes, Fargues, Preignac and Sauternes itself). With marginally flatter land and soils of red sand and light gravels, the commune adjoins the northern boundary of the commune of Sauternes, separated by the Ciron river, whose cold waters are so instrumental in producing the region's necessary autumn fogs.
There are just over 800 hectares under vine, producing nearly two million bottles in an average year. The châteaux can choose to sell their wine under either the Sauternes or the Barsac appellation but stylistically the wines are arguably a little lighter in style than those of Sauternes.
The leading producers are Châteaux Climens and Coutet, with Châteaux Nairac, Doisy-Daëne and Doisy-Vedrines making good value, attractive wines.

A very elegant wine which has a lovely delicate touch. A delicious, nutty crème brûlée and honey character is balanced by exacting acidity. This would be lovely with light fruit desserts. "Bright lemon and mineral, with hints of spice. Medium- to ... MORE | ||||

"A glorious nose of marmalade with just a hint of smokiness leaps from the glass. The palate is equally enticing and has just the right level of viscocity. A light to medium bodied Sauternes from a legendary vintage, this wine offers ripe botrytis and oranges galore. At this quality and price, I ... MORE | ||||

This is another mouthwateringly good effort from Ch. Coutet. One of the classics of the region Coutet has once again provided a model of elegance and balance and style in 2005. Discreet and stylish, the fine pale colour and graceful, aromatic floral bouquet are supported by a beautifully ...

The Chevaliers de Védrines who owned this property for centuries (until 1840) would be proud of the job that the Castéja family have done here. Doisy-Védrines is one of the stars of the 2005 vintage for its sublime elegance, richness and finesse. A terrific, ...

Really very exciting indeed. Limpid, very very sweet but with so much going on that for the first time in this tasting I swallowed it. Relatively low acidity but this wine is so dense it should last for a very long time yet is already rather gorgeous. Bigger sweeter than Suduiraut though possibly ...

Ripe citrus and pineapple, slightly nutty, concentrated on the mid palate and pure, very good balancing acidity. Good and almost extravagant. (James Suckling - winespectator.com - 30-Jun-2006) Jancis Score: 17/20 | ||||
