The 2022 Chateau Coutet 1er Grand Cru Classé (1855) Half Bottle (375ml) is a benchmark Barsac dessert wine, offering richness, elegance and freshness in a convenient format. Produced from Sémillon-dominant blends with the influence of noble rot, it showcases the classic balance that defines Château Coutet.
The nose is intensely aromatic, with notes of apricot, pineapple and candied citrus, layered with honey, marmalade and floral hints. On the palate, it is luscious and silky, with vibrant acidity balancing its sweetness. Flavours of tropical fruit, citrus confit and spice lead to a long, fresh and refined finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a perfect introduction to premium sweet Bordeaux in a half bottle. Ideal for those who enjoy Sauternes but prefer a fresher, more vibrant style. Drink now or cellar for 15–20+ years. Perfect with foie gras, blue cheese or fruit-based desserts.
