Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Coutet 1er Cru Classe 2016

95–96
/100

Lobenberg: Beliggende på et kalkstensplateau. Overvejende Semillon. Ikke helt så udtryksfuld i næsen som Doisy Daene. Den mangler den strukturerende, fine, mineralske bitterhed. Men sødmen er fin. Ikke fed, ikke papagtig. Det er virkelig et godt år her i Barsac. En masse nydelse. Ikke for meget eksotisme. Masser af klare stenfrugtaromaer. Meget harmonisk mundfølelse med masser af friskhed. Hvis Doisy Daene og Climens ikke fandtes i Barsac, ville jeg være begejstret. Men den må helt klart bøje sig for de to. 95-96/100

Suckling om: Chateau Coutet 1er Cru Classe

-- Suckling: Oily and dense with lots of sliced-cooked-pineapple, honey and light spice character. Full body and a long and spicy finish. Lasts a long time on the palate. 94-95/100

Jane Anson om: Chateau Coutet 1er Cru Classe

Oh that's lovely. Ginger and sumac spice, and a gorgeous richness with the perfect balance of minerality. Rich but pure botrytis character and gently curling smoky notes leap out of the glass. Amazing persistency, easily one of the best wines in the tasting. This is excellent; succulent and mouthwatering.

Wine Enthusiast om: Chateau Coutet 1er Cru Classe

The vibrant, tropical fruit-coulis character draws you into this concentrated and elegant Barsac. Then the crisp acidity and a wave of lemon and mineral character comes through, driving the finish out in the direction of the horizon. Drink or hold.

Tim Atkin om: Chateau Coutet 1er Cru Classe

Coutet’s wines are refined, restrained and refreshing in the richest of vintages, so in a year like 2016, they are even more so. This is a focused, taut, beautifully balanced Barsac with subtle reduction, citrus and grapefruit notes and a dusting of vanilla spice.
