Burghound, January 2015, Score: 91-93
(from a .24 ha parcel of 20+ year old vines planted in a mix of rock and sand). Here too there is enough reduction present to flatten the nose but not so much that the ripeness of the fruit is in doubt. The medium weight and beautifully delineated flavors possess a sophisticated mouth feel as well as a subtle bead of minerality on the delicious, intense and saline-infused finish. There is a feeling of controlled power and this too should amply repay at least a decade of bottle age. In a word, beautiful. Drink 2023+

Sarah Marsh, November 2014, Score: 19
Ah this is lovely. Here we step up a level. It is delicate. A lissom Vosne-Romaee. Silky, pure and so elegant.. Very refined. Ribbon of fruit and acidity. Long, lucid and delicate finish; persistence and finesses. Score 19. A highlight of the tastings. From 2023

Sylvain Cathiard is one of the top growers in Vosne Romanée, a region not shy of exceptional talent. He only has around 4.25 hectares of vines, therefore the quantity that he makes is particularly small. Traditionally, Burgundy domaines are renowned for being minute in size, and he is definitely amongst the smallest. In addition, he has some of the most exceptional vineyards, which read like a Who's Who list of the Côte de Nuits, many of which are located next to grand crus sites. This combination is lethal for allocations. Too little wine with too many open hands all waiting for their fair share. SInce 2011 his talented son, Sébastien, has been running the domaine.Read less
Region
Vosne Romanée
The vineyards of the modest village of Vosne Romanée are arguably the most sought after in the Côte d'Or. It is host to excellent Village and Premier Cru wines, but it is its most famous Grand Crusthat truly stand out: Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, Grands Echézeaux, Echézeaux, Romanée St. Vivant and La Romanée as well as Cros Parentoux, a Premier Cru vineyard which attracts Grand Cru attention (and prices). Vosne-Romanée can be remarkably robust and powerful, yet be charming and fleshy giving it one of the most diverse styles of the region.
