2014 Château Rieussec zeigt helles, glänzendes Gold im Glas. Auf Anhieb gefallen die Aromen von Waldhonig. Mit Belüftung lassen sich Düfte von Orangenschale und Zitrusfrucht erkennen. Im Mund folgt großes Kino aus cremig, seidiger Fruchtsüße und perfekter Säure. Solche großartige Balance ist absolut erstklassig. Punkt.

"2014 Vintage Tasted: Oct 2021

Fresh, vibrant, and floral, the honey-coated apricots, roasted pineapple, candied orange rind, lemon curd, caramel, and vanilla nuances already shine through in the nose and on the rich, lusciously, sweet, vivacious, racy palate. With another decade of age, this should really begin to shine."

The Château Rieussec 2014 is a blend of 93% Semillon, 5% Sauvignon Blanc and 2% Muscadelle, picked from 15 to 29 October through seven tries, the yield half the normal crop at 13 hectoliters per hectare. Charles Chevalier, how lest we forget started here and not chez Lafite, told me that the beginning of September had overripe grapes with passerillage – the second part had very good levels of botrytis. The blend is from these two parts. The bouquet is very well defined with crystal clear honeysuckle and white peach scents. The palate is beautifully balanced with nigh on perfect acidity that makes this seem just so…effortless. I would like to see a little more persistence on the finish, but otherwise this is classic Rieussec that might...and I stress might...just give that Sauternes beginning with the 25th letter of the alphabet, a run for its money.
