Château Rieussec, Premier Cru Classé in 1855, has long been considered one of the greatest sweet wines in Sauternes. The 2005 vintage is a composed of 90% Sémillon, 8% Sauvignon Blanc and 2% Muscadelle. Pleasant freshness on the nose revealing notes of apricot and fig, carrying through on a nicely rounded palate with candied aromas and a long finish.

The 2005 Rieussec has a petrolly nose with quince, fig and Clementine scents that blossom in the glass. Good intensity. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening and fine grip, very pure in style, with fig, dates and peach towards the harmonious finish. Lovely. Tasted at the 2005 Sauternes horizontal held at Château Coutet. Neal Martin17th June 2025
