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 93
"A whisper of wood can be found on the very ripe and beautifully layered array of red currant, Asian-style tea, lavender and violet aromas. The medium-bodied flavors are rich, intense and relatively robust with excellent depth and drive on the austere, backward and strikingly long finish. This beauty possesses outstanding potential but patience is indisputably required." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 95
"The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru, matured in 57% new oak (Sébastien Cathiard and I did the math!), has a slight reduction on the nose, but underneath lies tightly coiled brambly red fruit mixed with stony, almost flinty aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth entry, and silky from start to finish, offering candied red berry fruit laced with blood orange and a hint of soy. Very harmonious and long, this is an accomplished Les Suchots for long-term aging." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 94
"Bursting from the glass with lavish aromas of ripe cherries, raspberries and cassis that mingle with nuances of smoked duck and rich soil, the 2017 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots is full-bodied, broad and dramatic, with a fleshy attack, considerable depth and volume at the core, and a long, succulent finish. This is an immensely seductive Suchots." -William Kelley

Decanter

D 95
"Showing the freshness, poise and balance that define the Cathiard wines in 2017, this hails from a 0.17ha block of 50-year-old vines. The tannins are more polished at this stage than they were on the 2016 release, and it's focussed and smooth, with very subtle wood spice, chalky freshness and a fine texture."
