Château Rieussec 1988 is a noble sweet wine from the Sauternes appellation of Bordeaux. Château Rieussec is a First Growth producer, celebrated for crafting rich and complex wines from its vineyards adjacent to Château d`Yquem. The 1988 vintage was a classic year for Sauternes, producing botrytised wines with great elegance and freshness.
90 Vinous
Deep, oaky aromas of honey, coconut, vanilla and creme brulee Sweet and plump in the mouth; the flavors of coconut and tropical fruit are initially dominated by spicy oak notes. Finishes with slight heat (the alcohol is a relatively high 14.7%) but also excellent persistence of flavor. This showed more development of flavor as it opened in the glass.Stephen Tanzer1st July 1998
