The Château Coutet 1970 Magnum (150cl), a sweet wine from Barsac, comes from clay-limestone soils. This vintage, aged in barrels, blends Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle for aromas of honey and candied citrus. Its silky, mineral palate captivates. Ideal with foie gras or fruity desserts.
A family estate rooted in the golden lands of Barsac, where history has been intertwined with excellence for centuries.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils and gravels of the Barsac appellation, bathed by the Ciron and the Garonne, conferring a unique minerality and a balanced sweetness to the wines.
- Vinification: Tradition and precision, with manual harvesting in successive tries and aging in oak barrels to preserve the purity of the fruit and aromatic complexity.

To the eye: Amber robe with golden highlights, of a silky density and crystalline brilliance.
On the nose: Aromas of acacia honey, candied apricot and bitter orange zest, lifted by a touch of beeswax and a subtle chalky salinity.
On the palate: Unctuous and velvety texture, carried by a lively acidity that brings tension and freshness, while a stony minerality extends a finish of persistent elegance.
Serve between 8 and 10°C in a white wine glass of Bordeaux type to enhance its nuances.
