The 2017 Rieussec is a killer Sauternes that shows the fresh chiseled style of the vintage while still packing awesome fruit. Huge notes of orange blossom honeyed citrus mints and exotic flowers flow to a full-bodied viscous 2017 that has beautiful purity a clean perfectly balanced texture integrated acidity and a great finish. It’s a rockstar effort. 95-97 points. -Jeb Dunnuck

Still fairly primary. The fruit on the nose is remarkable. The purest apricot, and a little lightly burnt brown sugar, lots of flowers. Intense in the mouth. Not that sweet, and pretty good acids. Great length. This will go a long time. Delicious now, and certainly much better down the road.
