1984 Chateau Rieussec - France, Bordeaux, Sauternais, Sauternes
Atlanta Off-line with Ron Kramer (Bones Restaurant, Atlanta, GA): Wonderful amber, almost caramel color with exuberant, floral, white raisins on the nose. Rich, succulent honey, white raisins, and dried apricot flavors with a nice toasted, caramel, creme brulee like edge. Nice depth and good acidity, this sweetens and expands towards the long, lingering finish. Wasn’t this an off-vintage for Brdx? S92 4/22/2006
