Château Coutet stands in Barsac (Gironde), in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Château Coutet is a wine estate in Barsac, Gironde, ranked premier grand cru in the 1855 classification. Visitors come mainly for the vineyard and the cellars, though the grounds still hold a medieval tower dating from the English occupation of Guyenne and a French-style park surrounding the main house. The estate has belonged to the Baly family since 1977, who restored both the vines and the buildings.

What to know

The site is primarily a working wine estate, and visits are generally organised around the vineyard and cellars rather than the château itself.
A medieval tower, a remnant of the English fortifications of Guyenne, stands on the property.
The estate lies within the Barsac appellation, near the Ciron river, whose autumn mists favour the production of sweet wines.
No opening hours or visit prices are given in the available information, so it is best to check directly with the estate.
