Château Coutet 2023: 97/100Bright and lively, great tang with a subtle sweetness – more focused on citrus juice, orang rind, a touch of pineapple and some vanilla bean. Round, great persistency and just general zing without being too much of any one thing. Lovely precision, finesse and drinkability. An electric 2023. Georgie Hindle

Finally, the Sauternes. You might assume that Yquem would have come up trumps, but on this occasion, its neighbour Suduiraut shone brightly. The Yquem was just behind, with creditable performances from the Lafaurie-Peyraguey, Coutet, Doisy-Védrines and Rieussec   Opalie 2022: 91/100The 2022 Opalie certainly has one of the better aromatics, quite complex with touches of […]

Château Coutet 2023 : 17/20 (94/100)Couleur dorée. Nez intense, fruité, suave et complexe. Fond frais d’amandes fraîches à l’agitation du verre. Minutieux à l’attaque, juteux en milieu de bouche, avec de la classe dans le toucher, le vin fond sur le palais, long et séveux. C’est très bon. 2027 – 2055 Jean-Marc Quarin

Château Coutet 2023: 97/100Exceptional nose of white pepper, dried peaches and dried mushrooms with sweet, exuberant undertones. The palate is medium- to full-bodied and lusciously sweet, lifted by bright acidity that carries the wine to a balanced finish. Not cloying at all. 95% semillon, 4% sauvignon blanc and 1% muscadelle. Already great, but will improve […]

Château Coutet 2023: 96/100Coutet is delivering exceptional wines year after year, and this is right up there as one as the best of the 2023 vintage. Love the twist of acidity that runs right through the grated ginger and white peach, totally delicious, lingering and sleek, with fennel, anis, grilled pineapple, dried mango and saffron. […]

Château Coutet 2023 : 95/100Anyone fond of orange candy will find it hard to resist Château Coutet 2023. Supported by bright acidity and finely judged botrytis character, the sweetness seems to lose its weight, turning into a marshmallow gently suspended overhead. On first contact, the texture is rich and nectar-like, like a drop of floral […]

Cuvée Opalie de Château Coutet 2023 : 91/100 Opalie de Château Coutet : Au début réductif, il a besoin d’air ; des notes d’agrumes, de pamplemousse, une minéralité calcaire ; droit, précis, tendu, avec une acidité vive et un fruit délicat. Il gagne en ampleur sur le milieu de bouche, reste vertical et résonne agréablement […]
