Château Coutet 2018 : 18-18,5/20   Si d’après le château quelques lots flirtaient avec une liqueur très abondante, ils sont très certainement liés au miniscule rendement qu’à récolté ce cru classé.

Top Dessert Wines     Château Coutet 2018: 95-97/100   This wine’s ripeness is intense, just hinting at an impressive future. The dry core of botrytis balances the honey and the spice, along with fresh lemon curd. This is likely to be a very fine wine.     Roger Voss

Opalie de Château Coutet 2018 : 91-94/100   A showy, ripe style, with tangerine, peach and yellow apple notes, set on a creamy frame, revealing flashes of pineapple and verbena. Should be a lot of fun.   James Molesworth
