CHATEAU RIEUSSEC

The Rieussec estate history started in the 13th century. It was the Carmelite monks in Langon property at that moment; it was seized during the French Revolution and then sold as “National Asset”. Located near Château d’Yquem, the Château Rieussec’s soil was recognised and classified as Premier Cru of Sauternes and Barsac in the 1855 classification. Since 1984, Château Rieussec has belonged to the Barons de Rothschild’s Estates.
