2010 Bourgogne Rouge, Domaine Sylvain Cathiard

Lovely rich red black colour, offering a very seductive full pinot nose, rich and gracious. Excellent mid palate and with a fine silky finish. Really impressive for Bourgogne Rouge!
Jasper Morris MW, Burgundy Director

2010 is the first vintage to be made in the new cuvérie at this domaine, but it will be the last that is vinified by Sylvain Cathiard himself, he is handing over responsibility to his son Sébastien in 2011. The harvest began on 25th September with volumes just a little down compared to previous years, but as ever, Sylvain and his son have produced a most seductive range of wines.

Top Value Wines from the 2010 Vintage
(from a parcel of vines that are in Flagey opposite Clos de Vougeot). This is quite ripe yet remains fresh and pure with black cherry and raspberry aromas that lead to rich and solidly voluminous flavors that possess good mid-palate concentration, all wrapped in a balanced, velvety and complex finish. A terrific Bourgogne. 2014+
