Punteggio 87/100 · Da bere 2015-2019, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Apr 2015
The Opalie de Château Coutet 2012 is a blend of 70% Sémillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc matured in 45% new wood. It has an attractive bouquet with Granny Smith apple and pear skin aromas, a little more phenolic than other dry white Sauternes. The palate is well balanced with citrus lemon, almond and a touch of walnut, the new oak just a little too conspicuous on the finish. Still, this is an attractive dry white from Coutet.

Coutet
Classified as a First Growth in 1855, this Barsac property has a history stretching back to the 14th century. Today it has 38.5 hectares of vineyard, producing brilliant sweet wines cut by taut acidity. In certain years, it produces Cuvée Madame, pure botrytised Semillon from its oldest vines.
