Tasting Notes

The 2020 vintage of Rieussec from Sauternes, Bordeaux, France is a stunning example of the region's iconic sweet wines. Produced by the esteemed Château Rieussec, this wine showcases the perfect balance of luscious sweetness and refreshing acidity. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe apricot, honey, and vanilla mingle with subtle hints of citrus and floral notes. The wine's golden colour hints at its rich and complex palate, which delivers a mouth-watering combination of apricot, peach, and honey flavours. The sweetness is beautifully balanced by a lively acidity that keeps the wine from feeling cloying. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a pleasant sensation of honeyed fruit on the palate. This 2020 vintage of Rieussec is a masterpiece of Sauternes and a true testament to the skill and expertise of the winemakers at Château Rieussec.
