Carmes De Rieussec 2009 (1x75cl)

Carmes de Rieussec is the second wine of Château Rieussec, a well-known Sauternes estate usually blending Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc affected by noble rot. It's made to be enjoyed a bit sooner than the grand vin.

Lovely alongside foie gras, blue cheese, or fruit-based desserts, and a memorable gift for someone who enjoys sweet wine.
