Carmes de Rieussec - Château Rieussec - Sauternes 2017 37.5 cl 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056

Winter started with mild temperatures, slightly above normal, and January, colder than in 2016, favored a good vegetative rest. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 After the first very dry months - a third of the usual water volumes - the precipitation in February and March guaranteed good water reserves and facilitated budding. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 The beginning of spring was marked by a mild climate and normal rainfall, with rapid development of the vegetation. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 Nothing, however, announced the terrible nights of April 26 and 27 during which the entire Bordeaux region was hit by the most calamitous frost since 1991. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 In contrast, the weather conditions in late spring were excellent, with warm temperatures, higher than the average and those of 2016, and balanced rainfall, arrived at the right time. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 Flowering was early, almost ten days early, and the development of the vine was further accelerated during fruit set. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 At the end of spring, we had a good fortnight in advance. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 The last days of June were rainy, but beneficial: they made it possible to replenish the water reserves before summer and to cool the atmosphere, thus slowing the vegetation. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 Throughout the summer, the temperatures, without being cold, remained below the usual averages. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 This year again, we were able to observe similar climatic conditions between L'Evangile and Rieussec, warmer than in Pauillac, an area tempered by the ocean and the Gironde. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 Maturation thus proceeded slowly and, at mid-veraison, the year was still early. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 With the temperatures in August and September, though cooler than the average, the ripening has perfectly advanced and the first analytical checks have confirmed the potential of the vintage. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056 A single episode of rain, between September 10 and 20, came to disturb a serene climate, generating more comments than real degradations. 6b11bd6ba9341f0271941e7df664d056

Joli nez, tarte au citron, bouche douce, pas mal de liqueur, gourmand, assez riche en liqueur, pas très nerveux mais aromatique.

The entry-level effort is the 2017 Rieussec Carmes de Rieussec, and I’d certainly happily buy a bottle. Orange blossom, peach syrup, and exotic, tropical notes all emerge from this full-bodied, sweet, opulent effort. It doesn’t have the purity of clarity of the Grand Vin but is still a beauty.

Lemon confit, white flowers and mint are all laced throughout the 2017 Carmes de Rieussec. Fresh and light on its feet, with notable vibrancy, the Carmes hits all the right notes. The balance here is simply unreal, especially for a second wine. Picking a bit earlier and an increased emphasis in freshness is felt throughout the Rieussec range, but it is especially felt in the Carmes, a mid-weight, super-finessed wine that offers tons of depth while also staying light on its feet.

The 2017 Carmes de Rieussec, which has 100gm/L residual sugar, has a charming, lightly honeyed bouquet that is very pure. The palate is not as viscous as recent vintages that I have tasted, but well balanced with a keen thread of acidity that keeps the finish on its toes. This is a lighter Carmes de Rieussec than recent vintages and should be consumed within five or six years after bottling.

The 2017 Carmes de Rieussec, a blend of 94% Sémillon, 3% Sauvignon Blanc and 3% Muscadelle, opens with gorgeous lemon marmalade, peach preserves and preserved kumquat notes with touches of preserved mandarin peel and honeycomb. It fills the palate with rich, spiced apricot preserves notions, with a racy backbone to balance and a good, long finish.

Ripe and honeyed, this is already delicious. It's light as a vintage but has fine marmalade and apricot flavors which make it accessible for short-term enjoyment.

This is fairly sticky, as the botrytis began to kick in and concentrate after 20 September. You can feel that this is a little deeper and richer than it is in normal years. It's extremely attractive, but the freshness and acidity levels are better in the grand vin.

This is very spicy and full of botrytis with a medium to full body, apple, pear and hints of lemon. Medium sweet and has an effect of being dry at the finish.
