Château Les Carmes de Rieussec Sauternes 2000,

Les Carmes de Rieussec is the second wine of Château de Rieussec. It is made from the young vines that populate the 93 hectares of the estate, on gravel and silt soils. The proportions of the blend also differ, with here 80 to 90% Sémillon and 10 to 20 of both Sauvignon and Muscadelle.
As for the first wine, the vines are carefully monitored to allow the botrytis to give a beautiful noble rot. The harvest is therefore manual and even carried out in several passages, the sorting, to collect, almost grain by grain, the most beautiful fruits. Vinification and aging take place in oak barrels, with the second stage lasting around 18 months.
The result is a sweet wine with beautiful substance, powerful, fresh and which opens the door to other bottles from the estate. A bottle for long aging, of course.
