Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

JancisRobinson.com 17.5

Tasted blind. Smells sweet and nutty. Really interesting with almond notes and the cut and race of molten marzipan. Dry finish. Notes of creme brulee. [06/10/2021]

Anticipated maturity: 2020-2042

Wine Advocate 95

The 2011 Rieussec, a blend of 95% Semillon, 2% Sauvignon Blanc and 3% Muscadelle is an absolute dream. There is wonderful precision and mineralite on the nose, the new oak more integrated than a few months ago. The palate is beautifully balanced with clear honey, brioche and pralines, a sensual Rieussec that is utterly charming, hints of nougat and almond lingering on the long finish. Gorgeous! Tasted April 2016. [Neal Martin, 28/09/2017]

Anticipated maturity: 2020-2050

Vinous 95

Brilliant golden yellow. Knockout nose combines peach, citrus fruits, white flowers, saffron, honey and stone complicated by very pure lemony botrytis. Extremely deep and concentrated but youthfully closed, showing a powerful floral character to the peach, passion fruit and marzipan flavors. Finishes very long and perfumed; a laser beam of acidity gives this Sauternes exceptional clarity and cut. [Ian D’Agata, 07/01/2014]
