Rieussec Wine

Château Rieussec is known as one of the greatest names relating to Sauternes. With complex, sweet and balanced wines on offer, they are some of the best the region has produced. Its reputation has earned the place of Premier Cru Classe status, just slightly below d’yquem yet alongside other prestigious estates such as Guiraud and Suduiraut. The wine continues to perform consistently well each year as a consequence of Lafite-Rothschild’s expertise and investment since 1984. Producing wines since the late 1980s and mid-1990s, Rieussec produces classic full-bodied white wines that are deep golden-yellow in colour, featuring sweet, honeyed fruits.
