Château Rieussec, 1er G.C.C, 1855 2020 (750ml)

Fresh, expressive nose. The initial nose reveals fruity notes of quince jelly and tangerine zest. Secondary aromas develop of everlasting flowers, reminding us of the heat during the vintage. Oaky, lightly roasted notes are well integrated and remain in the background. On the palate, the attack brings the freshness of candied citrus fruit. The mid-palate is full and generous with notes of patisserie reminiscent of rhubarb tart. The wine’s mineral character comes through with some scents of fresh peat. The finish offers more oaky, lightly roasted notes, evoking a well-balanced brown butter.
