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

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The most reduced of these 2014s on the nose, but still with captivating scents of black raspberry, licorice and pungent crushed-rock minerality. Delivers a wonderfully silky texture enlivened by harmonious acidity. One senses a strong rocky element and yet the wine shows no edges. This seamless wine boasts a long, rising finish featuring a hint of dark chocolate and noble tannins. A beauty, and clearly a bottling to follow as the vines continue to mature." -Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

RP 92
"Courtesy of the domaine's youngest vines, the 2014 Vosne Romanée 1er Cru Aux Reignots has a perfumed, floral bouquet with rose petal scents infusing the mixture of red and black fruit, here the oak is nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannin, veering more towards red fruit with a touch of gaminess and sous-bois towards the finish. Very fine." -Neal Martin

Jancis Robinson

JR 17
"60% new oak. Planted 1997, so the youngest vines of the domaine. A little reduced but still with a notably attractive spicy nose with real energy and tension. Great texture and interplay between fruit and race."
