History and character

Sauternes produces sweet wines from grapes affected by noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), made from Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle.

It is the estate's second vin: it is normally made from grapes from younger plots or selections not intended for the grand vin, and reflects its style.

Carmes de Rieussec 2020 is a Johnston Fine Wines offering for those looking for a Sauternes white wine. Available in 75 cl: discover the other vintages in the catalogue.
