A huge thank you to Chateau Coutet for sending me those wines. Wine commentators like me who make free content available to everyone, unlike a lot of wine critics, need this kind of support. This is not sponsored, but Coutet supplied all of these beautiful wines which is not a small thing. So check those guys out, they deserve it.

The château is an English fortress that was built in the 13th Century. In 1787, Thomas Jefferson the former US President who was a lover of Bordeaux wines and who made his own classification, ranked Château Coutet as the best Sauternes from Barsac. Now owned by the Baly family since 1977, Coutet is exclusively distributed by the Baron Philippe de Rothschild group, owner of Mouton Rothschild. Some friendly people there. Anyhow, let’s get tasting.
