Château Rieussec 1990 (12 BT)

Château Rieussec 1990

Sauternes, 1er Cru Classé

Good levels, labels very slightly soiled, 3 capsules with old signs of seepage on on top; Bons niveaux, étiquettes très légèrement sales, 3 capsules avec des signes d'écoulements anciens au dessus

In 2021, a fabulous nose of pure treacle tart. On the palate, the stunning sweetness of the year, with tremendous balance and the intensity of a great vintage, à la 1929.
