Vinous Neal Martin - 13 Feb 24
The magnum of 1975 Coutet was poured at my own infamous birthday party at The Ledbury. It has a vibrant, citrus-driven nose with hints of mango and quince developing with time in glass. The palate is bestowed with a touch of spice and dried pineapple on the entry, fanning out beautifully with a crisp, dried apricot and marmalade-tinged finish. Coutet is defined by its vivacity and acidity, and this is a perfect example of it. It is very fine and superior to the 1976.
