Chateau Rieussec, a work of sharing and transmission. Recognised by all, Chateau Rieussec, the estate's first grand cru classé, was born of the masterful marriage of a unique terroir and exceptional know-how, it is celebrating its metamorphosis. Breaking with the established codes of Sauternes, Chateau Rieussec has imposed its innovative and creative image, its precious, modern, timeless and convivial nature. Its unique richness, its delicate osmosis make it a contemporary king of the party who handles with the same ease, humour and elegance. It has managed to convince us that it can be tasted in many different occasions, like so many different cuisines and seasons. If we know that it can be kept easily once opened, we must remember that it is a wine that can be kept for decades. The 2023 vintage The 2023 vintage was characterized by a winter that was wetter than the previous year but still below average, with two nights of frost causing localized damage without significant impact on the overall production. The climate then fluctuated between tropical conditions from mid-May to early July, presenting a constant challenge, and heatwaves in August and September. Thanks to the richness of the Rieussec terroirs and the good health of the vines, the harvest produced wines of exceptional quality with remarkable balance and purity. Tasting notes 2023 is one of those exceptional vintages. It stands out by a complex nose combining notes of apricot, candied citrus zest, and fresh pineapple. Floral accents of chamomile and acacia complete this delicate bouquet. The promise of the nose is confirmed on the palate with a subtle balance between the creaminess of the texture and the vibrant aromatic freshness. The finish is remarkable, featuring notes of blood orange peel and an intense, prolonged menthol freshness.
