This wine has begun to come of age

The mouthfeel is thickly woven and generous

This is fresh and up front

I would like more fruit for it comes across a little too austere

Coutet Cuvee Madame Vintage:1995 This wine has begun toThe 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
