Château Coutet 2010

The 2012 vintage is straw colored. Its nose displays lovely aromatic notes of lemons and limes, along with very ripe white fruits: peach, nectarine, and pear. The palate is round and smooth. The aromatic palate displays a great finesse and has a lot of elegance brought forth by aromas of exotic fruits and hints of sweet spices (mild spices and nutmeg). An enjoyable length on the palate, the wine's liveliness exemplifies a vintage that will be remembered for its freshness. Thanks to the cool terroir of Barsac, Château Coutet's distinct vivacity is preserved.
