“R” de Rieussec is a dry white produced on the Château Rieussec estate, a Sauternes Premier Cru Classé. Its refined style is enhanced by the very well-integrated wood that brings a pleasant complexity. It is partly produced from the same vines as the Sauternes.

2022

Decanter 92: Sharp and tangy, bright, energetic and so lively in the mouth. Keeps a sense of calm and seriousness, the brightness softens quite quickly with more of a cool, creamy, salty touch at the end and some flinty minerality on the finish. I love the initial brightness and intensity of apple, lemon, peach and apricot fruit before it narrows into a long finish.

2023

Vinous 89-91: The 2023 R de Rieussec has a fragrant nose with Vervain and light apple peel scents, hints of peach skin emerging with time and lending more complexity. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry, with crisp acidity and a pleasant bite on the nervy finish. It just needs a little more sustain, but otherwise, this will do nicely.
