The World of Fine Wine – Notre sélection de Primeurs 2021

Château Coutet 2021: 92-94/100

The 2021 has a classy, pineapple, botrytis nose, honeysuckle and quince, too; there are hints of nectarine skin and yellow plum as well; its 138g/l of sugar is beautifully integrated. Coutet restraint and Coutet exuberance: a basket of delicious contradiction. Benchmark Barsac! If only there were a little more.
