The 2010 Rieussec is similar to the previous bottle a couple of years ago. It has since opened with saffron-tinged honeyed fruit, dried honey and almond shavings. This example is more vanilla-y and oaky than previous ones, and that actually distracts from the terroir expression. The palate is medium-bodied; again, the new oak feels more prominent than previous bottles, prompting me to lower my score. It`s utterly seductive but articulates more of the winemaking than I would like. Tasted at the Lia`s Wings/book dinner at Medlar restaurant. 93 points
