Score 78/100 · Drink 1984, Robert Parker, Jan 1998
Surprisingly mature and ready to drink, the 1981 Coutet is an agreeable wine, but lacks richness and complexity. What it does offer is straightforward, fruity, lemony, melon aromas, and moderately sweet, somewhat short flavors. Drink up. Anticipated maturity: Now. Last tasted, 6/84.
