AN "R" YOU'LL REMEMBER
Everyone needs a little white Bordeaux in their life, so why not make it a dry white to remember. From the world’s leading name in Sauternes wines, this is CHATEAU RIEUSSEC - recognized since 1855 as the Premier Cru Classé of Sauternes and Barsac.
Seeped in history from monastery beginnings thru Napoleonic takeovers, this pedigree estate is now owned by none other than the ‘first’ in Bordeaux Grands Crus Classé - the DOMAINES BARONS DE ROTHSCHILD (LAFITE) - (aka: Bordeaux royalty).
This “R” de Rieussec 2019 is one of the best vintages from this royal breeding (aptly named “R” to make it easier to remember, perhaps?)
Produced from a blend of 51% Semillon, 49% Sauvignon Blanc, expect a powerful, harmonious nose with notes of citrus, mango, and other exotic fruit, with a direct, energetic attack on the palate with exotic, fresh character. The wine presents plenty of volume and good harmony.
And with names like RIEUSSEC and ROTHSCHILD LAFITE behind it,
this Bordeaux is... an ‘R’ you‘ll remember.
