Chateau Rieussec 1er Cru Sauternes 2015 375ml (RP96+)

Golden yellow colour with superb brightness, beginning to tend towards amber. The Rieussec 2015 is rich and full-bodied, the nose has already opened up and is very expressive, with aromas of yellow fruit, peaches, cooked pears and candied apricot. The wood is well-integrated. Pleasant notes of vanilla have a harmonizing effect. After a subtle, delicate attack the wine reveals itself more intensely on the mid-palate. It is fresh and develops excellent aromatic intensity, gradually gaining in power. The finish is very long, revealing remarkable depth and purity, with notes of apricots and prunes.

Chateau Rieussec is located in the prestigious Sauternes appellation, in the south of the Bordeaux region. Classified as an 1855 Sauternes Premier Grand Cru, Château Rieussec was acquired by the Rothschild family in 1984.
