Château Rieussec--Vintage 1975
Fargues (Sauternes), 1er cru classé
Lot 541 and 542 levels: very top shoulder; lightly torn labels, signs of seepage. Lot 543 and levels: bottom neck or better
Lot 543 removed from original carton and lot 544 in original carton
"Still remarkably youthful looking, and slow to evolve, this is a powerful, concentrated, and rich Sauternes, with decades of life ahead of it. Lemon, tropical fruit, and vanillin oaky aromas titillate the olfactory glands. Tight, yet rich, full-bodied flavors reveal marvelous balance and richness. It is aging at a snail's pace. Anticipated maturity: Now-2025." Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
