Coutet Cuvee Madame Vintage:2001 But not this wine

But not this wine

It's not as intense as the bigger vintages but is beautifully precise

seductively textured and palate staining flavors that possess good volume and a taut muscularity on the long and powerful finish

Brisk and tightly wound

A super-fresh nose is comprised by notes of essence of red pinot fruit

Coutet Cuvee Madame Vintage:2001 But not this wineThe 1995 Coutet Cuve Madame has a less flamboyant bouquet than other vintages, quite tight at first with dried honey, pain dpices, barley sugar and wax resin aromas. The palate is well balanced with a viscous, waxy textured opening, quite spicy in style, very well balanced and fresh, quite mineral driven, with that Manuka honey lingering long on the finish. Excellent. (145gm L residual sugar, 3. 5gm L total acidity, 13. 5% alcohol). Neal Martin
