Coutet is one of the oldest estates in the Sauternes region and has an outstanding architectural heritage and terroir. Château Coutet belonged to the Lur Saluces family for over a century and is currently owned and managed by Philippe and Dominique Baly, with technical and commercial assistance from Baron Philippe de Rothschild S.A., who have exclusive distribution rights.
The name “Coutet“ comes from the Gascon word for “couteau“, meaning “knife”, in reference to the wine’s fresh, vibrant acidity and unique crispness. When young, Château Coutet has aromas of white flowers, citrus, honey, and vanilla. Noble rot comes through with age, revealing a deep, delicate bouquet with hints of spice and candied fruit.
