2019Château Rieussec(White)
Ch.
Rieussec, Premier Grand Cru Classé, has been one of the references within the
Sauternes appellation for years. The domain belongs to 'Domaines Barons de
Rothschild' (Lafite). Today it is Saskia de Rothschild who runs it all. She
wants to get rid of the old-fashioned image that Sauternes only goes well with
foie gras or desserts, or dishes that only appear on the menu once a year.
Moreover,
in a very environmentally conscious approach, she wants to abandon the classic
translucent bottle and the classic box packaging.
Therefore,
the new bottle of Ch. Rieussec comes in more ecological cardboard boxes of four
and the dark bottle is made of 95% recycled glass. Moreover, it is provided
with a cap attached to a string (all materials were purchased as near as
possible to the property, in order to create as few CO2 emissions as possible).
Thanks to this cap, the bottle can be kept in the fridge for one month, so you
can drink a glass of this delicacy from time to time. Finally, the bottle can
be reused as a water carafe or vase.
Tip : try
the Ch. Rieussec aperitif with a few icecubes and two thin slices of orange
juice in the glass.
