Château Rieussec 1990 is a notable Sauternes from a year recognised for the quality of its sweet wines in Bordeaux. This wine primarily comprises Sémillon, complemented by Sauvignon Blanc. It presents a rich golden colour. The bouquet reveals aromas of honey, citrus peel and dried stone fruits. The palate is full-bodied, displaying a concentrated sweetness balanced by refreshing acidity. This vintage also provides considerable ageing potential.

Vinous
Exotic aromas of truffle, game, dried fruits and tobacco; strong impression of botrytis. Powerful on entry, then very sweet (74 grams/liter r.s.) and very concentrated, with an amazingly glyceral texture. Powerful and very deep. Still some sulfur to be absorbed. One of the richest wines of this group, really thick with extract. Finishes firm, youthful and very, very long. This vintage was picked in a single trie extending from late October into November.
