Château Coutet 2018: 95/100 Coutet 2018 is the most lucid among the entire tasting set; despite 18 months of oak aging, every fragrance is still crystal clear.

Château Coutet 2018 : 98/100 Il possède de la sève et la profondeur grâce à une liqueur abondante, mais pondérée par la force du sol de Barsac qui donne de l’éclat au fruit. Quel équilibre ! Quelle matière en bouche ! Somptueux. Roberto Pétronio

Château Coutet 2019 : 97-98/100 Son nez complexe évoque la mandarine. Vif, rayonnant et sapide, ce barsac gracieux présente une liqueur harmonieuse tout en élégance avec un bel éclat de fruit. Un beau référent. Roberto Pétronio

2018 Château Coutet: 97/100 There was not much botrytis in 2018 but plenty of ripening sun! And so, for the most part, wines speak more of air-dried grapes than they do of the smoky complexity induced by noble rot. There was just one masterpiece: the glorious Château Coutet. Luscious on entry, with myriad scents of […]

Château Coutet 2020: 95/100 95% Semillon, 4% Sauvignon Blanc and 1% Muscadelle. Considerably more of Semillon in the blend in 2020 (around 20%). Fresh and intense nose of sweet pineapple, peach and mango, luscious tropical fruits on the palate, excellent acidity, finesse and sophisticated touch, complex with a long-honeyed finish. Izak Litwar
