Carmes de Rieussec
Vintage 2007
After a normal winter and an exceptionally mild April, 2007 was comparatively cool from June to August, with below average temperatures and sunshine. However, a warm and sunny September and October enabled the harvest to fully ripen without any problems. In the end, the climatic conditions offered the potential for a great vintage.
Golden colour with hints of light amber.
The nose offers superb freshness with exotic fruit; in the mouth there is a well-structured sweetness that is not excessive and finishes with slightly candied citrus flavours.
