Château Rieussec, 1er Cru Classé, Sauternes 2016 12x37.5cl

93 Points, Neal Martin, 2022-2050 Vinous The 2016 Rieussec has an elegant bouquet of pure honeysuckle, orange pith, peach and light minerally aromas. The palate is well balanced with fine precision and pleasant fatness, featuring white peach and almond-infused, honeyed fruit. A touch of vanilla emerges toward the finish. This was a barrel sample due to be bottled in January 2019, though it was virtually the finished wine. Review Date: 01 Jan 19
