Description
2006 Sauternes 1er Cru Classe
Chateau Rieussec borders Yquem and Fargues. The 93-hectares vineyard lies on hilly gavel, lime soils with clay subsoil. The 2006 vintage is 94% Semillon, 3% Sauvignon, and 3% Muscadelle.
The wine presents a lovely orange-tinted pale gold hue. The nose is dense and exudes pleasant mix of flower notes (honeysuckle and acacia) and candied fruits. The 2006 Chateau Rieussec starts off subtle and generous on the palate yet increasingly offers intensity with honey flavours that lead to a long, fruity, quite fresh finish.
