Description

1x bottle of 2016 Chateau Coutet - one of the most prestigious estates in the Sauternes/Barsac AOC, with 1er Cru Classe status since 1855 - in pristine condition, recently removed from bonded temperature controlled storage.

Sauternes makes one of the best sweet wines in the world, made with dissecated botrytised grapes which concentrate flavours and require several passes in the vineyard to pick up by hand on selected grapes only. Yields can be as low as 15hL/ha and they might be achieving one glass per vine only.

'Pale lemon colored, the 2016 Coutet reveals gorgeous quince paste, candied ginger and key lime pie scents with touches of lemon marmalade and peach compote. Full-bodied, rich and seriously seductive, it has a lively line cutting through the sweet, dense layers and epically long finish. Drink 2021-2049'. Score: 94 Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, November 2018

'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. Score: 95' James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, February 2019

'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. Score: 96' Jane Anson, Decanter.com, April 2017

I aim to deliver promptly so you can enjoy this at your dinner table for Christmas.
