Chateau Sisqueille 1941 Chateau Sisqueille

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (96)

The 1941 Rivesaltes from Château Sisqueille, which made vins doux naturels until the early 1970s, has an entrancing bouquet with quince, Satsumas, mirabelle and touches of white flower. The precision and delineation here are astonishing. The palate is beautifully balanced with immense purity and perfect acidity with captivating quince, lemongrass, marmalade and brown sugar notes. This is a brilliant wartime vin doux naturel that is one of the finest that I have tasted from this long-lost estate.
