Robert Parker – France, Bordeaux: 2009 Ten-Years-On Retrospective. How Soon is Now?

Château Coutet 2009 : 96/100 – (Primeurs : 96-98/100)

Pale to medium gold colored, the 2009 Coutet leaps from the glass with warm apple pie, dried mango, fresh straw, lemongrass, ginger and crème caramel notes. The rich, concentrated, unctuous flavors are lifted by amazing freshness, finishing epically long, layered and with a tantalizing nuttiness.
