SAUTERNES & BARSAC
151. Château Coutet, Barsac “The 2019 Coutet has a very intense bouquet of wild honey, saffron, dried pineapple chunks and a touch of cold, wet stones, all imbued with palpable joie-de-vivre. The taut, fresh palate is underpinned by a silver bead of acidity (always one of this Barsac's leitmotifs), offering clementine, peach and nectarine toward the persistent finish. A joy. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2055.” 95 pts, Vinous 60825 375 ml $60 60307 750 ml $110 152. Château Doisy Daëne, Barsac “The 2019 Doisy Daëne has a gorgeous bouquet of wild honey, quince, saffron and touch of shucked oyster shell, intense and utterly seductive. The palate is well balanced, taut and fresh, with a fine bead of such perfectly pitched acidity that you barely notice the botrytized finish. An outstanding wine from Jean-Jacques Dubourdieu. Drinking Window: 2024 - 2060.” 96 pts, Vinous 389505, 390705 750 ml $100 153. Château Doisy-Védrines, Barsac “This is a vintage that really suits the Barsac wines, because they have the concentration and richess that is inevitable with the heat and small yields of 2019, but still manage a grip and salinity that ensures brilliant balance and a moreish mouthwatering finish. Orange peel on the finish, this is great.” 96 pts, Decanter 389390 750 ml $90
