Chris & Aaron is like a trip tale into the mind of a creative soul

Chateau Rieussec Sauternes Rieussec. Château Rieussec has been a leading wine in Sauternes for several generations. Ranked as a Premier Grand Cru in 1855, it is made with a subtle blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon and Muscadelle.

Wine type: Sauternes, 1st Cru Classé - Chateau Rieussec - Partenariat Privilegié Baron de Rothschild.

Vintage and alcohol content: 2017 - 14°

Region: Chateau Rieussec vineyard extends to the border of Fargues and Sauternes - France.

Grape/blend: 93% Sémillon, 2% Muscadelle, 5% Sauvignon.

Type soil: sandy-clay soil.

Colour: sparkling yellow.

Aroma: the nose is delicate, with scents of wild flowers. There are also notes of candied citrus fruit and melon. The wood is well-integrated.

Tasting notes: it reveals a pleasant acidity, with a good balance between freshness and richness. Citrus fruit is again present, with notes of orange. The long, fresh finish develops classic notes of candied apricots. While having a good potential to improve with age, this is also a wine that can be enjoyed relatively young.

Serving suggestions: perfect with foie gras, lobster, shrimps, blue cheeses or an old Comté. Serving 8/10°C.

Please note that it is an offence to purchase or attempt to purchase alcoholic liquor if you are under the age of 18.
