VISIT
On the road to Château Coutet, we come into direct contact with the magic of the Barsac terroir.
Driving from Bordeaux, we start to feel the presence of the river which is our companion until we see the first vines. In the heart of the old fortress, then in the stables of Yquem, the history of Sauternes and Barsac unfolds before us, evoking the memory of the hundreds of vintages that have come into being in these cellars.
