Château Coutet, Barsac Premier Cru, 2014

Château Coutet, Barsac Premier Cru, 2014Aged in oak, the wine is of a pale colour. The nose is full of lovely aromatic notes of grapefruit, lychee, mango and pineapple. In addition, flavours of lime, toasted almond, and acacia flower can be detected. The palate is fresh and mineral but an incredible density to the wine imparts a long finish.
