Tasting Notes
About 75% Semillon, 23% Sauvignon Blanc and 2% Muscadelle in the blend.
La Chartreuse de Coutet is the second wine of the famous, First Growth Classified property, Chateau Coutet. About 75% Semillon, 23% Sauvignon Blanc and 2% Muscadelle in the blend, harvest manually in successive tries (passes) in order to ensure only botrytized grapes made it to the blend. The result is a rich, peachy, dessert wine with impeccable balance and freshness.
Critical Acclaim:
(2019 vintage) "Medium golden yellow, silver reflections. Ripe apricot and peach fruit, attractive bouquet, fine hint of honey. Juicy, elegant, medium complexity, white fruit, integrated sweetness, pleasant acidity, balanced, already accessible, with development and certain ageing potential." -Falstaff
