TerroirSense – Fresh off the Bottling Line: A Look at the 2018 Bordeaux Wines Available Now
2 July 2021
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 […]
Great Wines from Bordeaux – 2020 from barrel
18 June 2021
Château Coutet 2020: 95/100 95% Semillon, 4% Sauvignon Blanc and 1% Muscadelle. Considerably more of Semillon in the blend in 2020 (around 20%).

Vert de Vin – Primeurs 2020
7 June 2021
Château Coutet 2020 : 97/100 Le nez est élégant, racé, précis, élégant, joliment marqué par son terroir et offre une certaine droiture, de la profondeur (en finesse), de la complexité.

Château Coutet 2020: 92-94/100 The 2020 Coutet is wonderfully dense and creamy from start to finish. Dried pear, marzipan, white flowers, mint and tangerine oil build in this super-expressive, deep Barsac. The 2020 has so much to offer. Antonio Galloni

Wine Enthusiast – Renotation millésime 2018
28 May 2021
Château Coutet 2018 : 95/100 This wine is beautifully textured. The orange-peel and candied fruitiness are balanced by a dry core of botrytis that gives the wine weight while keeping a light touch. It has all the tight freshness and minerality typical of this great estate. Drink from 2026. Roger Voss
