Sylvain Cathiard, Vosne Romanee En Orveaux 1er Cru, 2020
🏰 The 2020 Sylvain Cathiard Vosne Romanee En Orveaux 1er Cru is a highly sought-after Burgundy Pinot Noir, lauded for its 【remarkable youthfulness, freshness, and balance】. The 2020 Burgundy vintage, despite the challenges of the Covid pandemic and unusually high temperatures, is largely considered excellent. This particular wine, from a northwest-exposed vineyard, offers a well-defined bouquet with more minerality than some counterparts, showcasing pure black cherry and cassis fruit laced with pressed violets. The palate is medium-bodied with fine structure, gentle grip, and a touch of spice towards the finish, leaving a trace of white pepper. It exhibits exceptional energy and purity of fruit.
🍴 This elegant Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with classic Burgundy pairings such as roasted duck breast, goose, and other game birds. Its fine structure and fruit purity also make it suitable for delicate red meat dishes or mushroom-based preparations.
🥂 An excellent choice for a discerning collector or a special occasion, this wine is built to age gracefully. While enjoyable now, it will continue to evolve and gain complexity with further cellaring. Serve at 16-18°C (60-64°F).
BACKGROUND
Domaine Sylvain Cathiard is a highly regarded family wine producer based in Côte de Nuits, Burgundy. Known for its sought-after, high-priced Pinot Noir wines, made from grapes sourced from First and Grand Cru vineyards in Vonn and surrounding appellations. The history of the winery begins with Sylvain’s grandfather, who started making wine in Burgundy in the 1930s. Later, descendants took over the winery and ran it until the 1980s. With approximately 5 hectares (12 acres) of vines, its most prestigious wines come from this Grand Cru vineyard, and its portfolio also includes several Grand Cru wines from Nuit-St-Georges and Vosne-Romanée.
