RATINGS

88-91Burghound.com

Noticeable wood spice serves as a backdrop for a highly expressive and pure nose of black pinot fruit and violet floral aromas that merge seamlessly into rich and nicely full flavors blessed with a velvety and sappy mouth feel...

87-90Stephen Tanzer

Cherry, raspberry, smoky oak and pungent minerality on the nose, lifted by a whiff of violet. A step up in depth and breadth from the village wines, offering sappy red fruit and piquant mineral flavors and lovely structure and grip.

PRODUCER

Sylvain Cathiard

Sylvain Cathiard is a 10-acre estate in Romanee-Saint-Vivant, in Burgundy’s Cote de Nuits. Sylvain himself is a third-generation Burgundian winemaker who set up his own domaine nearly 20 years ago before returning to run the family’s domaine after his father’s retirement. He now works with his son Sebastian. Their flagship wines are Vosne-Romanee Premier Crus Les Malconsorts, En Orveau, Les Reignots and Les Suchots, and Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Crus Aux Thorey and Les Murgers. Cathiard and his wines are beloved by many wine writers, including Clive Coates, who says “there is a touch of genius here in the winemaking, resulting in bottles of exceptional purity and fragrance: Pinot Noir at its most elegant.”

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanee, Aux Reignots

Aux Reignots is a 4-acre Premier Cru vineyard in the Vosne-Romanee appellation of Burgundy’s Cote de Nuits. It lies just west of Romanee and Romanee-Conti. Burgundy writer Clive Coates has written that Aux Reignots “has a touch of the rustic. But it is full, rich and substantial, nevertheless.”

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, 1er (Premier) Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
