94-96 Neal Martin - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2022 Coutet has a beautifully-defined nose with pure botrytised fruit: tangerine, saffron, honeysuckle and orange rind hints. This has impressive focus. The palate is medium-bodied with a viscous opening, fine acidity, pure and harmonious. A tensile and persistent finish drags you back for another sip. Superb.

96 Roger Voss - Wine Enthusiast

A beautifully perfumed wine, this is richly textured and full of spice. Its acidity and light poise come through strongly with acidity to give a wine both rich and light. Drink from 2028

94-96 Lisa Perrotti-Brown - The Wine Independent

A blend of 94% Semillon, 5% Sauvignon Blanc, and 1% Muscadelle, with 158 g/L residual sugar, the 2022 Coutet is pale to medium straw in color. After a little swirling, the nose erupts with gorgeous lime cordial, fresh grapefruit, and mandarin peel scents, followed by wafts of wet pebbles, freshly shaved ginger, and beeswax. The palate is vibrant and shimmery with fantastic intensity and tension, finishing long and layered.

95-96 Jonathan Choukroun - Vert de Vin

The nose is elegant, racy and precise. It reveals notes of roasted pineapple, kumquat and small notes of roasted apricot associated with touches of yellow peach, quenette, spices, fine hints of almost aromatic herbs, a hint of sage as well as a subtle sappy hint, saline and a very discreet hint of pepper / spices. The palate is beautifully structured, supple, fresh, mineral and offers a tangy frame, suppleness, a beautiful racy minerality, deepness as well as unctuosity in finesse and delicacy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of kumquat and roasted apricot associated with touches of candied peach, raisin/passerillage, pulpy/candied brugnon as well as fine hints of apricot flowers, elderflowers and verbena. Presence of a discreet hint of fresh marmalade and orangette on the finish.

95 Peter Moser - Falstaff

Light golden yellow, silver reflections. Gooseberries, limes and honey blossom, fresh bouquet. Juicy, elegant, white peach, integrated sweetness, pleasant freshness, yellow tropical fruit on the finish, remains long latsing, harmonious overall picture.

The 2022 Château Coutet is more deep gold-hued and has a ripe, powerful style in its brioche, toasted bread, honeyed orange, and marmalade-like aromas and flavors. It's a rich, unctuous, full-bodied effort that has serious density and depth.

95 Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider

Flowers, pineapples, mango, apricot and candied lemon notes get the wine going. The palate, with its layers of sweet, ripe and overripe, honeyed yellow, and orange fruits is fresh, long, intense, balanced, and most importantly, delicious! And isn't that the purpose of a wine? Drink from 2025-2055
