Left Red Burgundy

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 strikingly spicy nose speaks of sandalwood, anise, violet and a hint of hoisin on the plum and black cherry-scented nose. The gorgeously textured and quite finely delineated middle weight flavors brim with minerality on the dusty, serious and built-to-age finish. This beauty will also benefit substantially from extended forbearance." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Aux Reignots 1er Cru possesses a very harmonious, understated bouquet that gradually unfurls to reveal enticing black cherry, raspberry and crushed stone aromas, later becoming more floral in style but always retaining a sense of control. The palate is extremely precise and very smooth. Perhaps this is the one cuvée from Cathiard where slightly earlier picking might have engendered more precision on the finish, which flirts with exotic notes, pulling back just in time. One for those who like a flamboyant Vosne-Romanée." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 94
"The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Reignots soars from the glass with scents of ripe wild berries, orange rind, burning embers, peonies and rich soil tones. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with an open-knit and expressive core of fruit, framed by melting tannins and juicy acids. As usual, this is one of the most charming wines in the cellar." -William Kelley
