JaneAnson.com- En Primeur Report Bordeaux 2024

Château Coutet 2024: 97/100
Delivers texture and flesh, love the aromatics that are sweet without being heavy, this has restraint and carefully-measured fleshy fruits, nectarine, pineapple, white peaches, lime zest, gunsmoke, perfectly-judged acidities. One of the wines of the vintage, great stuff from Philippe and Aline Baly.

Cuvée Opalie de Château Coutet 2024: 94/100
Gunsmoke and cloves, reserved and understated with slate and pumice texture, serious and structured right now, with sappy citrus and it relaxes in the glass, and oyster shell salinity on the finish. Clear ageing capacity, great quality.
