Description

Characteristics and tasting tips for Château Coutet 2023

Tasting

Nose
The nose reveals intense floral fragrances (vine flowers), flint, Botrytis and dried fig.

Palate
A rich and ample attack precedes a fresh, elegant and balanced palate. Persistent, the finish is supported by subtle notes of white flowers.

A complex and delicate Barsac sweet wine

The estate

The Château Coutet is located in the Barsac appellation in the Sauternes region. In 1787, Thomas Jefferson, future president of the United States, considered the Château Coutet to be the best Sauternes from Barsac. The word "Coutet" is derived from the Gascon word for a knife. This word perfectly sums up the unique style of the estate's wines, which are sharp, lively and fresh.

The vineyard

The Château Coutet 2023 is a Barsac wine from a 43-hectare vineyard, with vines averaging 52 years old, planted on clay-limestone soils.

The vintage

A mild winter was followed by a drier spring than last year, before a warm and humid June. Cooler than 2022, the summer ensured favourable berry maturation thanks to mild conditions. Botrytisation began on September 15 and developed rapidly thereafter due to high temperatures.

Vinification and ageing

Harvest carried out in two successive passes. Ageing for 18 months in barrels, 20% of which are new.  

Blend

Sémillon (95%)
Sauvignon Blanc (4%)
Muscadelle (1%).
