Tasting Notes
Antonio Galloni 95
The 2022 Coutet delivers nuances of pineapple, tangerine oil, orange confit and spice. Exotic and unctuous, it’s also light on its feet for such an obviously rich wine. There’s great balance here.
Anticipated maturity: 2027-2052
Wine Advocate 94+
One of the wines of the vintage, the 2022 Coutet opens with notes of apricots, spices and exotic fruits, setting the stage for a medium to full-bodied, round and supple palate enhanced by brightness and tension that culminates in a spicy, minty finish. Its balanced structure and lively acidity contribute to an ethereal ending, making it a very elegant yet chiseled Barsac. This blend of 94% Semillon, 5% Sauvignon Blanc and 1% Muscadelle is matured for 18 months in barrels.
Anticipated maturity: 2034-2054
