Château Coutet a Barsac
1er Grand Cru de Sauternes White Bordeaux Blend
Sauternes, Graves, Bordeaux, France
Wednesday Wine Committee. Great hosting by Gavin. 1 sparkler, 4 whites, 4 reds and 2 dessert wines. All served blind as usual.
Such a treat. This was absolutely wonderful and has so much fruit and life to it! It is extremely honeyed...not much roasted nuts to this at its age, but the honey is still there and seems to be only getting stronger. Honeyed covered mangos, dried apricot, and orange marmalade. I called this early ‘80s Sauternes.
