Tasting Notes

With 132.3 g/L of residual sugar, the wine offers a beautiful balance between richness and freshness. Aromas of white peach and citrus lead into a palate that is vibrant and energetic, with honeyed fruit, bright acidity, and remarkable length. Aged in 25% new oak, this is a refined and expressive Coutet with excellent ageing potential. Drink 2029-2038.

Vinification
