The 2021 Couhins Blanc turned out beautifully. Bright and focused, the 2021 possesses tons of verve that gives the wine its distinctive character. Lemon peel, sage, mint, crushed rocks and slate all race out of the glass. This is impeccably done. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

Bursting with bright white stone fruits and citrus zest, lemon and lime, sharp, high acidity but good balance too. Full of life and energy, really piercing but so well balanced, giving so much joy! Delicious! Idioine, salty, and so mineral. It also has a sweet lemon lift at the end which is so appealing. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter

Pale gold, nicely-placed citrus and quince fruit, savoury and elegant. This is a lovely white, enjoyable and sculpted. Good stuff. - Jane Anson

The 2021 Couhins Blanc is a little closed to start, soon opening out to reveal notes of lime juice, green apple, and fresh pineapple with wafts of struck flint and yuzu. Medium-bodied, the palate has an electric backbone of freshness supporting the energetic citrus fruits, finishing long and steely. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independant

A layered and bright white with a medium body and tangy acidity. Refreshing. Lots of lemon and pineapple with some spice, anise and saltine character at the end. - James Suckling

The 2021 Couhins Blanc exhibits aromas of crisp green apple, pastry cream and confit citrus, followed by a medium to full-bodied, chalky and incisive palate. As usual, this overperforming estate from clay-limestone soils has produced a white wine that punches above its weight. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate

The 2021 Couhins-Lurton Blanc has a fresh bouquet with apple blossom, persimmon and crushed stone scents that gain intensity in the glass. The palate is well-balanced and fresh, with a citrus peel entry and a vibrant, harmonious finish that urges you back for another sip. Chapeau! - Neal Martin, Vinous Media
