| Community Tasting Notes (average 93.6 pts. and median of 94 pts. in 22 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by fcxj on 1/19/2024 & rated 92 points: De-stemmed aromatics. Clean, fresh, red fruited palate. (526 views) | | | Tasted by LW31 on 2/24/2022: Stylish, smooth. A bit sleek and polished but showing 05 depth and complexity. It's a lovely glass of pinot, didn't show much of a Nuits profile to me. (1511 views) | | | Tasted by BLam on 6/18/2021 & rated 95 points: My another wow wine for burgundy 1er cru, and this had all grand cru qualities. Louis left the bottle opened for 4 hours before serving. Wonderful intense noble floral and red fruits nose, deep ruby color, silky palate, mouthful feel and long after taste. Superb! (1668 views) | | | Tasted by Burgnick on 2/8/2020 & rated 93 points: It was given a good 6 hours of aeration. Nose expressed dates, sweet dark fruit, minerals and violets. Palate was generously open and deep. Perfect balance between fruit and acidity. Drinking well already for a young Cathiard. (2420 views) | | | Tasted by SurfBurg on 7/7/2019: The nose was something special. It was like being at The Butchart Gardens! However, this wine probably suffered from being drunk at a Fourth of July barbecue after some Cal Cabs and even a Cayuse. I guess we just couldn't handle the barbecue wines anymore! NR (2415 views) | | | Tasted by Collector1855 on 2/6/2019 & rated 95 points: PoB - Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Lunch (Hong Kong): Also here, a very floral nose intermixed with clay, licorice, gingerbread. Wonderfully refined and elegant. (3357 views) | | | Tasted by fcxj on 1/19/2019 & rated 94 points: PoB. Floral aromatics. Pretty special purity, precision and intensity. (1867 views) | | | Tasted by Burgnick on 10/29/2018 & rated 94 points: Decanted for 30 mins before serving. Deep nose with wild berries, asian spice, herbs and cinnamon fruit. Palate had very good depth showing the pretty berry fruit. Extra fine tannins. Grand cru quality. Very powerful. Upside from here. The length was regal and long. Totally stole the show tonight against Meo Boudot 06,10 and Cathiard Thorey 06,08. (1856 views) | | | Tasted by BenBlu on 8/10/2018 & rated 95 points: Previous notes hold. This time served in a line-up sort of single blind with Dugat Py Gevray VV 99, Roty Gevray Fontenys 05 and Marchand Charmes 08. I guessed this correctly as my wine but most others did not guess this as Nuits. It developed amazingly in the glass displaying haunting Vosne spices and amazing pure fruit and concentration. WOTN for everyone at the table. (1640 views) | | | Tasted by BenBlu on 7/10/2018 & rated 95 points: I had a bottle of this over two weeks on three occasions - first two from Coravin and then pulled the cork. This is really a great wine and one that changes a fair bit over time. On pnp this is drinking well showing minerality and focus. It is clearly very ripe for a red Burgundy given vintage and there are no sour notes ever but rather lush blueberry fruit emerging with some air. Oak can be showing but I find it less obvious immediately after pour and with a lot of air, it just in between has its little window. With some air the wine gets so full throttle that one could mistaken it for a great Pomerol even. This is super sexy red Burg with a finish that doesn’t want to quit. Probably not the most classic but a great great wine. Drinking now and for many many years. (1623 views) | | | Tasted by hahaha123 on 5/26/2018 & rated 92 points: 2005 is a bigger wine (1411 views) | | | Tasted by BenBlu on 3/22/2018 & rated 94 points: Third bottle of this over the last year. When I opened the bottle to decant and took a small taster it had a really impressive mineral undertow and amazing nose. Decanted for around 3 hours and the wine showed a true elegance but also decent power paired with a wonderful nose that was most reminiscent of Vosne. Probably as good as NSG gets for me! After the experience with this bottle I would probably decant slightly shorter next time (maybe try after half an hour) as I felt the minerality and velvet punch it had when I took the initial taster got a bit lost. (1531 views) | | | Tasted by BenBlu on 12/8/2017 & rated 94 points: Double decanted and left in bottle for 24 hours - then decanted for an hour before serving. This was absolutely gorgeous. Great nose of berry bushes, positively "sauvage"/wild, hint of stems, just kept on getting better with more air. Lovely intensity and panache. Better then my first bottle earlier this year which was probably due to the extended aeration. Although maybe lacking the finesse of his Vosne wines this is really super special NSG. Great winemaker. Drink now - 2035. (1619 views) | | | Tasted by hajoha on 6/25/2017 & rated 93 points: Med luft kommer Pinotsexy.
Frukten er virkelig dyp på denne.
Strålende nese med litt luft.
Bra trøkk.
Ungdommelig og vil utvikle seg i mange år fremover.
Mørk frukt i finish.
Sitter lenge med helt fine tanniner.
Ung og jævlig digg. (1864 views) | | | Tasted by BenBlu on 3/26/2017 & rated 93 points: First of a case. Decanted 2 hour. Really beautiful nose of top notch red Burg. On the palate this was good but not as refined as a Malconsorts 07 had recently (go figure), the tannins are a tiny rustic and could be more refined maybe. Got better with more time. Strong red Burgundy, outstanding NSG. (1784 views) | | | Tasted by jhngo on 6/20/2015 & rated 96 points: more ripe sweeter fruit. (2607 views) | | | Tasted by cos65 on 5/18/2014: Boerne wine club Nuits St Georges vs Vosne Romanee (Scenic Loop Cafe): Beautiful, spicy aromas with some earthy flavors. Quite fine. (from a bottle with some spillage) (3664 views) | | | Tasted by macker100 on 5/18/2014 & rated 91 points: At BWC tasting. Very muted nose. Blackberries, cherries, earth on palate. More ageing needed. My #6. (2599 views) | | | Tasted by St Paul on 5/4/2012 & rated 93 points: Deep focused red fruit. Power but with a nice elegance. Expected a bit better acidity this vintage but lovely anyway. (3235 views) | | | Tasted by Ramberg on 5/4/2012 & rated 93 points: Very good nose, with nice and expensive wood and some funky stable tones.
Very nice wine, with soft acidity and well integrated and soft tannins.
Good, deep fruit.
Excellent wine. (3863 views) |
| Pinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.France Vins de France (Office National Interprofessionnel des Vins ) | Pages Vins, Directory of French Winegrowers | French Wine (Wikipedia)

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
