CARMES de RIEUSSEC
Second sweet wine from Château Rieussec

Second wine of Rieussec, created in 2002. Expressive and seductive - flowers, white peach, honey - on a body that is half sweet but very elegant (terroir obliges). The Sauternes affair, its market price being even lower than its production cost!

Property Rothschild (de Lafite). Contiguous to Yquem, Rieussec is one of the sweetest wines of the Sauternes region, revealing itself only after at least 10 years in the cellar. Evolving from 2013 onwards towards a more elegant, even delicate style, Rieussec magnificently combines richness and finesse. Proof of this is its 2016, described by M. Quarin as "the great return of Rieussec among the great sweet wines of the Gironde", rated 93/100.

Until 2010, Duhart-Milon was known for producing one of the firmest and tightest Pauillac's, requiring at least a decade of ageing to reveal its qualities. Since then, Duhart-Milon has refined its style to gradually approach Lafite's (same owner and same team). New direction and progress amply confirmed in the two great vintages of 2015 and 2016, with a new charm and fatness. In view of the quality of its terroir (the only 4th great classified growth in Pauillac), Duhart-Milon has certainly not finished its ascent.

Appointed cellar master in 1994, Mr. Chevallier focused on developing Lafite-Rothschild wines without losing any of the characteristic bouquet of blackcurrant, graphite and cedar. This objective was quickly achieved in 1995, placing Lafite at the top of the 1st classified growths (this was already the case in 1855), and revered as such by the Chinese market. The incredible qualities of Lafite's terroir make it a unique vintage and give Cabernet Sauvignon (more than 90% present each year) its most beautiful aromatic expressions.
