DESCRIPTION
R de Rieussec is produced on the Chteau Rieussec estate, a Sauternes Premier Cru Class.
It is partly produced from the same vines as the Sauternes.

20% of fermentation takes place in barrels.

This technique enhances the wines potential to age, while preserving its freshness and thenatural fruitiness from thegrapes.

TASTING NOTE
Powerful, harmonious nose with notes of citrus, mango, and other exotic fruit.

The direct, energetic attack on the palate presents the same exotic, fresh character. The wine presents plenty of volume and good harmony. The buttery notes from the barrel-ageing have a definite presence and will quickly become integrated to give the wine more complexity.

The finish is backed up by a pleasant acidity.
