Opalie: Château Coutet’s Masterpiece Dry White

Produced in limited quantities, it is a magnificent testament to the estate's unique clay-limestone terroir, typically reserved for its sweet wines. This cuvée is celebrated for its singular elegance and profound minerality, offering a sophisticated alternative to the finest white wines of Pessac-Léognan.

Tasting Notes (Representative Vintage)

• Colour: A pale lemon hue with golden highlights.
• Nose: Highly complex, offering invigorating aromas of lime, grapefruit, and stone fruits like peach and apricot, underscored by a characteristic minerality and a delicate whisper of oak.
• Palate: Lush yet bright, the palate delivers a creamy texture perfectly balanced by a vibrant, racy acidity. Flavours are concentrated citrus and zest, leading to a long, refined, and mineral-driven finish.

Food Matching & Serving

Serve cool (10-12°C). This is a fine dining wine that demands thoughtful food pairings.

• Suggested Food Matches: Crab Linguine with Chilli & Parsley, Oysters with a Shallot Vinaigrette, Creamy Goats' Cheese Tart, or Roast Guinea Fowl.
