The Château Rieussec Carmes de Rieussec – Second Vin 2021 greets the eye with a vibrant golden yellow hue, indicative of its rich sweetness and depth. Visually, the wine is bright and concentrated, typical of a carefully crafted Bordeaux dessert wine.
On the nose, it reveals a complex and expressive bouquet with intense aromas of ripe apricot, honey and candied citrus, accompanied by floral nuances and subtle spice hints from oak maturation.
On the palate, this Sauternes displays a harmonious balance of refined sweetness and lively freshness. Flavors of pear, honey and citrus peel are woven into a lush, full-bodied profile with a smooth texture and a long, persistent finish, making it an excellent representative of its appellation.
