Lively, with lemon gelée, white peach and honeysuckle notes backed by a zip of savory and a flash of fleur de sel. Utterly delicious. Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. Drink now through 2025. 333 cases made.

89-91 Sporting a pale lemon color, the 2020 Opalie de Coutet gives up invigorating wafts of grapefruit oil, mandarin peel and nectarines, with hints of struck match and wet pebbles. The dry, refreshing, medium-bodied palate is packed with citrus and minerally flavors, supported by a racy backbone and finishing zesty. I like this "sec" expression a lot!

The 2020 Opalie, the dry cuvée from Coutet, has a perfumed nose of white flowers, honeysuckle and Conference pear, a light earthy note emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine acidity that neatly counters the concentrated citrus fruit, and a tang of stem ginger and dried orange peel toward the finish. This is an excellent Opalie that should drink well for several years.
