1er Cru classé, Château Coutet is located in the commune of Barsac. It is one of the oldest estates in the Sauternes region. James Suckling (95)
"The style is simply magical, luminous, slender, airy, invigorating, crisp. What finesse on anise, star anise, verbena... on a base of juicy, honeyed yellow fruit bursting with sunshine."
Appearance
The robe can vary over the entire range of colors from pale gold to coppery gold through straw yellow.
Aroma
In the main aromatic field of soft and sweet Bordeaux we find the flower, the fresh fruits, the exotic fruits but also spicy notes and empireumatiques (wood, cinnamon, vanilla ...).
Wine Floral | Soft | Spicy
Taste
The sweet white young are delicious, they are slightly jammy but still retain acidity. With age they evolve on more concentrated aromas, such as the bitter orange confit and small notes of salted butter caramel.
