Details
Château Rieussec--Vintage 1997
Fargues (Sauternes), 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
In original wooden cases
Tasting note: This wine contains an extremely high percentage of Semillon (usually about 90, which was to its benefit in 1997. The wine is light medium gold-colored, with a blockbuster nose of Grand Marnier liqueur intertwined with flower blossoms, smoky new oak, and coconut. Well-integrated wood has resulted in a seamless, full-bodied, unctuously-textured wine with considerable sweetness. This is a stunningly proportioned, beautifully pure wine. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2025. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate Issue 122 (Apr 1999)
