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: 94/100The 2023 Coutet has a fresh an quite saline bouquet with yellow plum, sea spray and quince scents that unfold with time.
