Château Coutet Château Coutet Château Coutet is a "Premier Cru Classé" (French: First Growth) sweet wine from the Sauternes-Barsac appellation located in Barsac, in the southern part of France’s Bordeaux vineyards. Château Coutet is one of the oldest Sauternes producing vineyards, and is described by David Peppercorn as a "twin" of Barsac's other "Premier cru" estate, Château Climens. Coutet also produces a second wine, Chartreuse de Coutet, a dry white wine named Vin Sec de Chateau Coutet and a cuvée in vintages of exceptional quality, Cuvée Madame. The estate was acquired in 1643 by Charles le Guerin, Lord of Coutet, a counselor
Château Filhot Sauvignon blanc and 4% Muscadelle. Their annual production is an average of 6500 cases. The second wine is called Chateau Pineau du Rey. Château Filhot Château Filhot, archaically named Maison Noble de Verdoulet, is a winery rated "Deuxième cru classé" (French, “Second Growth”) in the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855, from the Sauternes appellation in Gironde. Considered by some unjustly omitted from the "Premier cru" classification, Filhot produces a drier wine than Château d'Yquem, with an unusually high alcohol content for a Sauternes. The vineyard dating from the 1630s, the château was founded by Romain de Filhot in 1709.
