Details
Lying in Weybridge, Surrey (EHD)
Château Rieussec--Vintage 1989
Fargues (Sauternes), 1er cru classé
Wax capsule, slightly raised. Excellent appearance and level
In original wooden case
Tasting Note: The colour is deep straw, and the wine displays an intense perfume of crème brûlée custard, baked apple pie, and sweet, ripe pineapples and pears. Full-bodied, rich, alcoholic, and fat, with low acidity and considerable sweetness, this is a luxuriously rich, unctuously-textured, heavyweight Sauternes that should become more civilized with age. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2025. Last tasted 11/97 Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition 1998.
