Description
The Château Rieussec Les Carmes was born in the homonymous estate belonging to the Domains de Baron de Rothschild, in the heart of the Sauternes AOC. It is the second wine of the Château.
It is mainly obtained from Sémillon grapes and from Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle grapes, harvested in several stages, berry by berry, after the bunches left to dry on the plant have been attacked by the noble rot, Botrytis cinerea. 50% of the wine is vinified in vats and 50% in monovarietal barrels. At the end of the fermentation, the wine ages for at least 18 months in used wooden barrels, before being bottled.
Château Rieussec is characterized by an intense golden yellow colour. The nose opens with sweet aromas of white flowers, acacia, honeysuckle, honey, enriched with spicy notes. In the mouth it is soft and creamy, with excellent freshness, with a persistent finish.
Ideal in combination with blue cheeses, it is perfect to accompany desserts.
