Goedhuis, November 2017
Full, velvety body, plush and inviting. Both silky and bright, with early attack. Will drink well from youth. One third lost to frost and mildew.

Neal Martin, December 2017, Score: 89-91
One-third of the 2016 Vosne-Romanée Village was lost to mildew this year and what survived is raised in 50% new oak. It has a very pure and suave bouquet: precise red berry fruit, sous-bois and cold slate-like aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with strict tannin, clean and fresh with a gorgeous blood orange note that enlivens the tensile red cherry and strawberry fruit on the finish. There is impressive substance to this village cru. Drink 2020-2030

Burghound, January 2018, Score: 88-91
A lightly spiced nose of ripe red currant, plum and violet is trimmed in just enough wood to mention. The caressing middle weight flavors are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a sleek and seductive mouthfeel as well as buffers the moderately firm tannic spine. I like the balance and this should drink well after only a few years of bottle age. Drink: 2021+

Decanter, January 2018, Score: 90
Cathiard’s Vosne villages offers up a seductive bouquet of ripe dark fruit, red cherry, spice and creamy new oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, cool and concentrated, with velvety tannins and good energy and tension. The wine’s new oak seems more controlled than in several recent vintages. Drink 2024-2040

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.
