Bid on this 2-half-bottle lot of 1975 Rieussec, Sauternes (375ml) (90RP). Wine Advocate: Still remarkably youthful looking, and slow to evolve, this is a powerful, concentrated, and rich Sauternes, with decades of life ahead of it. Lemon, tropical fruit, and vanillin oaky aromas titillate the olfactory glands. Tight, yet rich, full-bodied flavors reveal marvelous balance and richness. It is aging at a snail's pace. (RP) (01/1998)

Included in this lot · 2 bottles

Provenance: Purchased from a reputable source and stored at a professional temperature-controlled wine storage facility until picked up by K&L.
