Rieussec 2007 is a full-bodied, botrytised sweet wine from the Sauternes appellation of Bordeaux. Château Rieussec was granted Premier Cru Classé status in Bordeaux`s 1855 classification and has long been considered one of the greatest sweet wines in Sauternes. The 2007 vintage is a blend 87% Semillon, 8.5% Sauvignon Blanc and 4.5% Muscadelle. "The Rieussac 2007 ... has an almost Barsac-like bouquet with barley sugar joining the ginger and honeyed notes, quite powerful although I feel this is just going through a sullen patch at the moment. The palate is very pure and balanced with a wonderful seam of acidity that slices through the viscous botrytis fruit, quite spicy on the finish." Wine Advocate, 2017
