2019 Chateau Coutet
95/ 100 point | Vinous
"The 2019 Coutet has a very intense Bouquet of wild honey, saffron, dried pineapple chunks and a touch of cold, wet stones, all imbued with palpable joie-de-vivre. The taut, fresh palate is underpinned by a silver bead of acidity (always one of this Barsac’s leitmotifs), offering clementine, peach and nectarine toward the persistent finish. A joy."
94/ 100 point | James Suckling
"Wildflower honey, dried pineapple, candied lemon, with an exotic ginger and cumin spice here and marmalade on the nose. Waxy and luscious balanced by fresh acidity. Spicy, unctuous but also delicate."
93-95/ 100 point | Jeb Dunnuck
"Lots of pure honeycomb, candied orange, quince, and white flower notes all emerge from the 2019 Château Coutet, another balanced, sweetly fruited dessert wine from 2019 with lots to love. I don't think it's going to match the 2016, but it's certainly in the same class as the 2017. It's going to shine right out of the gate yet keep for 15-20 years in cold cellars."
