Rieussec 1975

Château Rieussec 1975 is a sweet wine from the Sauternes appellation of Bordeaux. Château Rieussec consistently shines as one of the most renowned names in Sauternes, and it is often considered the second-best wine of the appellation, following Château d`Yquem. On the 1975 vintage. "Still remarkably youthful looking, and slow to evolve, this is a powerful, concentrated, and rich Sauternes, with decades of life ahead of it. Lemon, tropical fruit, and vanillin oaky aromas titillate the olfactory glands. Tight, yet rich, full-bodied flavors reveal marvelous balance and richness. It is aging at a snail`s pace." Wine Advocate, 1998
