Cathiard is a tiny domain - there never is very much wine. You enter a spick and span white stucco suburban home in the center of the small village of Vosne Romanee. There is a walled vineyard outside the front door. Go down the staircase and you are in a minuscule cuverie and barrel room. Not a lot of barrels here either. No wonder the wine is sold in 6 bottle cases.

Sebastien Cathiard has been slowly assuming control of this top estate in Vosne-Romanée from his father Sylvain. He is now fully in charge, but the wines have been so good for so long that he wisely has changed very little. They continue to farm meticulously, de-stem and rigorously sort all the fruit prior to fermentation. The only thing he has changed is the gradual reduction of new oak, seeking a bit more purity of terroir expression.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 95
"Discreet if not invisible wood sets what is once again a cool, pure and restrained nose of super-fresh red currant, plum and violet scents that are blessed with a terrific range of spice elements. There is a wonderfully seductive inner mouth perfume to the lavishly rich and caressing medium weight plus flavors that coat the palate with sap on the gorgeously complex and impeccably well-balanced finish. This is one of the very best examples of Suchots that I have seen from Cathiard." -Allen Meadows

Decanter

D 91
"A nose of cassis, blackberry, incense and grilled meat is framed by creamy new oak. It's a full-bodied, bright wine which is a bit more structurally rustic and a bit less complete than the highlights of the Cathiard range this year. This may have been in an awkward phase when I tasted it at the end of October 2017, so this score could be conservative."
