Over het wijnhuis | Château Coutet, een Premier Grand Cru Classé, bevindt zich in de ‘gouden driehoek’ van Barsac. Deze driehoek wordt gevormd door de oceaan, de rivier en het bos. Samen zorgen ze voor het unieke terroir van Barsac en Sauternes. Vandaag de dag is het landgoed in handen van de familie Baly, een wijnfamilie met roots in de Elzas. |

Awards | "The 2021 Coutet is a real success in this challenging vintage, evoking aromas of dried apricot, pineapple, spices and ripe orchard fruits. Medium to full-bodied with a delicate, fleshy texture, the consequence of noble rot, this sweet wine is lively, with bright acids and a long, lingering, penetrating finish." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Fantastic energy and length to this young Sauternes, with dried-apple, apple-pie, spice and cinnamon character . Medium body, medium sweetness and a vibrant finish." - James Suckling "75% Sémillon, 23% Sauvignon Blanc, 2% Muscadelle. Mid gold. Intense, ripe apricot fruit with great freshness to balance, and with so much flavour at moderate alcohol. A gentle tannic grip adds complexity to the thick, creamy depths. Deep and long. (JH)" - Jancis Robinson "The 2021 Coutet has another refined and (for Coutet) low-key bouquet that gradually finds its voice: quince, white peach, pineapple and beeswax scents. A faint hint of saffron that surfaces with aeration. The palate is well-balanced and quite viscous, bearing superb weight and a clean and pure, beautifully defined, botrytis-rich finish. Touches of vanilla emerge on the aftertaste. Excellent." - Vinous "A plump, forward style, with a pie crust note wrapped around green fig, green almond, mango and orange curd flavors. Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. Drink now through 2035." - Wine Spectator "Slightly toasted orange rind and vanilla caramel on the nose. Lovely density and unctuousness on the palate, really quite rich and fleshy with peach, sweet pineapple and toasted almond notes on the palate. Mouthwatering and racy, but also textured, balanced and structured. A great effort with excellent ageing potential." - Decanter |
