Vinous – The F-World: Bordeaux 2017

9 mai 2018

Château Coutet 2017 : 94-96/100 The 2017 Coutet, which was tasted both as a final blend and directly from several different lots in barrel, has a very well defined bouquet with pure wild honey and orange blossom aromas that gain intensity with aeration.

Château Coutet 2017 : 95-97/100 The 2017 Coutet has lovely notions of spice cake, fresh ginger and honeysuckle over a core of lemon curd, beeswax and preserved peaches. Rich, spicy and quite decadent in the mouth, it has wonderful freshness and depth, finishing very long. Lisa Perrotti Brown

12 avril 2018

Château Coutet 2017 Barrel Sample (Barsac); 95-97 points. This wine shows great balance and poised elegance. Its botrytis fruit gives it rich intensity, with a ripe orange-marmalade flavor and layers of tight acidity. This will be a wine for serious aging and not ready to drink before 2024. Roger Voss
