Carmes de Rieussec Sauternes 2020 - 375ml

Blend: 84 % Sémillon, 12 % Sauvignon Blanc, 4 % MuscadelleWinery Tasting Notes; Intense nose with beautiful aromatic complexity. Mellow, slightly minty notes promise good balance. On aeration, notes of rhubarb tart and a hint of dried apricots develop. The palate is well balanced with the wine’s freshness underscored by a pleasant acidity. There are notes of dried fig accompanied again by dried apricot. Subtly toasted oaky notes contribute to the wine’s roundness and smoothness. A freshly-struck-match minerality accompanies the wine for its entire length.Our tasting notes: This did not have the complexity of your Gran Vin, but it charmed us nonetheless. Very creamy, with a hint of peaches and apricots, balancing its sweetness with high acidity. Very pleasant second lable for Rieussec. We liked the wine some much we bought some for our store’s shelf.
