Score 91/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Apr 2015

The just-bottled 2014 R de Rieussec is bright, focused and impeccable in its balance. Lemon peel, lime, slate, lemongrass and mint are all beautifully delineated in a focused, white to enjoy in its youth, while the flavors remain vibrant.

The R de Rieussec 2014 is a blend of 46% Sauvignon Blanc and 54% Sémillon. It has a crisp, slightly petrolly bouquet that opens nicely in the glass, hints of barley sugar in the background. The palate is fresh and crisp on the entry, the Sauvignon Blanc much more expressive at the moment with green apple and gooseberry on the finish. Fine.
