Makuprofiili
In the glass, it shows a deep, luminous golden colour that immediately signals its concentration and maturity. The nose is expressive and layered, with aromas of honey, toasted almonds, and ripe pineapple unfolding into a luxurious and inviting bouquet. On the palate, the wine opens with tropical fruit notes of mango, papaya, and fresh mandarin, followed by a full, creamy texture and a beautifully refined sweetness. Despite its opulence, a bright line of acidity keeps everything lifted and elegant, leading to a long, persistent finish marked by honeyed, sun-ripened fruit. This is a wine with excellent aging potential, capable of developing even greater complexity over time.

Viininvalmistus
Château Rieussec is located in Sauternes, where the cool morning mists and warm afternoons create ideal conditions for noble rot, or Botrytis cinerea, to concentrate the grapes’ sugars and aromas. The grapes are typically harvested by hand in several selective passes to ensure only perfectly affected berries are picked, allowing for maximum purity and complexity in the finished wine. Vinification is carried out with great care to preserve the estate’s signature balance between richness, freshness, and aromatic intensity.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
Château Rieussec pairs beautifully with delicate desserts such as tarte Tatin, crème brûlée, almond pastries, or fruit-based sweets, and it is also a classic match for blue cheese or foie gras. Serve well chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, to highlight its freshness and aromatic lift. Decanting is generally not necessary for this style, though opening the bottle a little in advance can help the aromas fully express themselves.

Tuottaja
Château Rieussec is one of the most prestigious names in Sauternes and has long been considered among the region’s leading estates. Its reputation was cemented by its classification as a Premier Cru Supérieur in the historic 1855 Bordeaux Classification, a status that reflects its enduring quality and importance. Today, it remains a reference point for luxurious sweet Bordeaux wines, admired for its consistency, complexity, and capacity to age gracefully.
