Dark brown in color with strong notes of caramel, nuts, and dry honey, plus a hint of mushroom. It’s not overly sweet and the high acidity keeping everything in balance. Medium-plus body and a medium-plus finish. After having the 2001 Rieussec last month, this one feels a bit too old for my taste—it’s missing the fruit characters —but still worth the experience.
