2019 Coutet Half-fl.

The 2019 Coutet in pale lemon gold is a thrill from the start, shooting out of the glass with fantastically intense scents of tangerine peel, lime blossom and lemon marmalade over a core of pineapple, candied ginger, ripe apricot and clover honey, as well as hints of chanterelle and musky perfume. The palate is equally electrifying and intoxicating, prancing around the palate with a whole host of candied citrus, stone fruit and citrus flavors carried by a racy acid backbone, finishing with a beautiful texture and an epically long mineral fireworks display.
