Michael Schuster | Deep orange; dense, mineral, limestone-imbued, and with a glacé-fruit presence; rich, concentrated wine, fresh for the year; intensely sweet, very glacé-fruit in flavor, long, vital, subtly raisiny—an unusual flavor profile for Coutet—but tight, complex, concentrated, and complete—and with very good length. Atypical Coutet, and quite how it will develop in bottle—difficult to tell! | 92–93
