Description

1947 Chateau Coutet tasting note from Cellar Tracker. "If the nose on the 1947 Coutet is promising, then the palate over-delivers with the most fresh rough cut Seville orange marmalade, macadamia, toffee, cooked shiitake, Marsala, and unsmoked cigar. This isn’t the biggest, but I love its combination of fresh and savory, of young and old, of lush and svelte." Tasted 2022 - 96 Points

Château Coutet is a historic wine estate located in Barsac, Bordeaux, known for producing exceptional sweet wines. Established in the 13th century and classified as a Premier Cru Classé in 1855, it is one of the oldest and most esteemed vineyards in the Sauternes and Barsac regions. The 38.5-hectare vineyard benefits from a unique clay and limestone terroir ideal for growing Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grapes. The estate, managed by the Baly family since 1977, employs meticulous hand-harvesting and traditional winemaking techniques to create its renowned wines, including the flagship Château Coutet and the second wine, Chartreuse de Coutet. Known for their rich, complex flavors and remarkable aging potential, Château Coutet wines are celebrated for their balance of sweetness and acidity, making them a staple of Bordeaux's prestigious wine offerings.

The 1947 vintage is considered historic and highly sought after in Bordeaux due to its exceptional quality. Wines from this vintage are often praised for their richness, concentration, and longevity.
