The 2023 R de Rieussec has a fragrant nose with Vervain and light apple peel scents, hints of peach skin emerging with time and lending more complexity. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry, with crisp acidity and a pleasant bite on the nervy finish. It just needs a little more sustain, but otherwise, this will do nicely.

Polished. Generous body, smooth, mineral, savoury. Full on fragrant and zesty citrus, pamplemousse, white blossom, saline. 3.15pH.
