CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2015 Rieussec has a fragrant and quite floral bouquet, scents of yellow flower and earthy aromas filtering through the honeyed fruit. The palate is well balanced with a tang of marmalade and quince on the entry. This is pure and creamy in texture with shades of coconut and creme brulee toward the punter, friendly finish. Lovely. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.

"A blend of 86% Semillon and 14% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2015 Rieussec reveals a bright, pale straw-gold color and is a little closed at this youthful stage, yet it offers wonderful purity and depth, featuring notes of lemon marmalade, orange blossoms, beeswax and acacia honey with hints of preserved kumquats and peach compote. Very elegant and fine in the medium to full-bodied mouth, it features a racy backbone cutting through the earthy and citrus layers, finishing long and spicy."

Tasted blind. Strong coconut note and lovely satin-smooth creamy texture. Gorgeous! Such intensity and layers. Really glorious.
