JaneAnson.com – Primeurs 2022 : Whites

Opalie de Château Coutet 2022 : 94/100

Structured dry white with clear slate character, saffran and white pear, savoury and mouthwatering, good stuff, with grip and personality. Harvest 25 and 26 August, after a year when only 72mm of rain fell in this part of Bordeaux from the end of April until the harvest, making 2022 one of the driest vintages since records began.
