In what must be a first for the wine world, James Suckling leads off his 99-point review for the 2015 Chateau Rieussec by proclaiming "OMG." If you enjoy having a dessert wine once in a while, this is one you should not miss. Drink now or hold for decades. A very special wine.

(2/5/2018) "OMG. This is amazing. This is the new 2001. Incredible purity of botrytis and ripeness. Full-on. So driven and precise. Full-bodied, very sweet and electrified. Pineapple jam and mangoes - endless tropical fruits. This ends very clean and is almost tannic on the finish. A truly great Sauternes. Energy. Drink or hold."
