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
Swedish wine Swedish wine Swedish wine, in terms of wine produced commercially from grapes grown in Sweden, is a very marginal but growing industry which saw its first beginnings in the late 1990s. In less strict usage, the term "Swedish wine" has also been applied to fruit wine from Sweden, which has a very long tradition, and wine produced in Sweden from imported grape juice, which goes back longer than actual viticulture in Sweden. Sweden is well north of the area where the European vine, "Vitis vinifera", occurs naturally, and there is no tradition of wine production from grapes in the country.
