Description:
Delicate gold in hue, this Sauternes opens with a beautifully expressive nose, unfolding layers of dried apricot, rhubarb tart, and subtle mint. The palate is both fresh and richly textured, offering flavours of fig, candied citrus peel, and a touch of honeyed Muscadelle. Toasted oak and a faint struck-match minerality bring roundness and depth, while the fine acidity keeps the wine lifted through a long, elegant finish. A superbly balanced sweet wine with complexity and poise.

Product Information
Elegant, Vibrant and Harmoniously Sweet
Carmes de Rieussec is the second wine of Château Rieussec, one of Sauternes’ most prestigious estates under the ownership of Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite. Crafted with the same care and precision as the grand vin, Carmes offers an earlier-drinking style with remarkable finesse. Combining freshness with generous fruit and a gentle touch of botrytis complexity, it beautifully reflects the estate’s commitment to balance, purity and terroir expression.
