Berthe & Moritz

Why it's on our shelf

Rieussec makes one of the great Sauternes, but R is what happens when the same team, the same vines, and the same plateau produce a dry white. The 2022 has the weight and precision you'd expect — not a casual aperitif, but a wine that works with a proper first course. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon from Premier Cru terroir, vinified with the same care as the sweet wine.
