Score 84/100 · Drink 1979, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

Rieussec made a very fine 1967. Not having tasted it for some time, I suspect this wine has been fully mature since the mid 1970s. It is lighter in style and body than some of the more recent vintages of Rieussec, but richly fruity and spicy, with a roasted, grilled nut aroma. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 9/79.
