"The château's square tower dominates a gravelly hilltop at the same height as its immediate neighbor, Yquem. Needless to say, the estate enjoys an exceptional terroir; for proof, just taste this remarkable 2007. Light in color, it develops a fine, powerful bouquet combining ripe grapes, apricot, broom and cinnamon with a touch of balsamic. Silky, round and rich, the palate finds its balance between liqueur and fresh menthol notes. Pair with veal chuck braised with orange and star anise". (Le Guide Hachette 2011) - Delivery in wooden cases possible for orders of 12 bottles of this wine (depending on country and shipping method selected).

96-97/100 Vert de Vin
"Golden yellow. Intense, complex bouquet! Obviously seductive, charming, but also convincing as it reveals itself with precision. Passion fruit, quince, candied orange and saffron. A sort of journey between sweetness and freshness. On the palate, Rieussec is racy, sweet, powerful, opulent and subtle. It couldn't be more paradoxical! What greatness, I have rarely tasted Rieussec so well... note that I always taste it well in fact, but this one is of a breed and sweetness so complementary to each other that the balance is perfect." (Yves Beck 2019)
R de Rieussec - Bordeaux blanc 2022
2*Étoiles Hachette
-
92/100 Decanter
"A blend of Sauvignon (55%) and Semillon aged partially in barrels, with one-quarter new oak, this very fine white evokes an assertive mineral character with a hint of shellfish right from the opening, enhanced by fine floral nuances. The fresh, citrusy attack, the fine development on the palate, between tension and roundness, and the finish of fine bitters make up a complete, energetic and balanced wine, underpinned by a great mineral and chalky character". (Guide Hachette - Edition 2025)

"The pure, candied apricot nose of Carmes de Rieussec announces a fresh, ripe liqueur. A very smooth Sauternes, with a slightly sticky sensation. The finish is lively, with notes of candied lemon". (Le Guide de la Revue du Vin de France 2021) - A fine achievement for a 2nd wine, which will be a real pleasure to drink!
