Description

Domaine Sylvain Cathiard is one of Burgundy's most revered and highly sought-after producers, renowned for crafting Pinot Noir wines of exceptional purity, elegance, and intensity. Based in the heart of Vosne-Romanée, the family-owned estate was established in the 1930s by Sylvain's grandfather, who worked at prestigious domaines like Romanée-Conti and Lamarche. Sylvain took over in 1985 and, since 2011, his son Sébastien has run the 5-hectare domaine, further elevating its reputation and refining the winemaking style.

The Cathiards have 5.5 hectares of vineyards in Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-St-Georges and Chambolle-Musigny, including tiny holdings in Clos de Vougeot and Romanée-St-Vivant. A recent addition (from 2006) to the range is the Nuits-St-Georges Aux Thorey.

Review
The 2023 Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsorts 1er Cru is a kindred spirit to the Les Suchots on the nose, sharing the same purity and utterly entrancing delineation. The two-thirds new oak is seamlessly integrated. The palate is beautifully balanced with a bit more grip and maybe a little more backbone than the Les Suchots, yet there is so much harmony and poise toward the finish. Outstanding. Drink 2028-2055.

Review
Just a little deeper in colour, a fresh pale purple. The bouquet expresses the joy of Malconsorts, floral as well as with an exquisite darker cherry fruit and as usual this is by far the most complete wine on the palate with a deep cherry expression, just more red cherry than black, but with a sense of harmony that excites. Drink from 2032-2040.
