nose- sour berry, floral mouth -plentiful rich fruit, earthy, nice balance. a bit square shouldered overall and lacks the lushness and mouthfeel of some of his higher end Vosne cuvees (what a difference a few kilometers makes). Good but unless you're getting a deal its unlikely worth the price of admission.

Popped and poured. Still very youthful, cherry, ripe strawberry fruits, orange peel, deep roses, some traces of iron/minerals and very well managed luxurious oak. A big one that is not overdone, drinking really well in all that classic Cathiard glory. A real delight.

Cathiard NSG Aux Thorey 2015. Flaske 1 korket. Flaske 2 er et annet dyr. Dyp nese. Tar gjerne enda litt mer kjellertid. Mørk frukt, litt fat, spice og parfyme. Litt pakket inn, men likevel sexy. Smooth og rik munnfølelse. Ikke en kant i sikte. Høy konsentrasjon med akkurat nok friskhet til å bære det hele. Dette er digg. Flotte former helt ut i finish. Sitter lenge med fine tanniner. 93-94p Edit - den vokser og vokser i glasset. Parfymen i siste slump er helt magisk. Både på duft og smak kommer detaljene enda bedre frem. 94+

Light ruby in appearance with purple hues. Nose presents typical red fruits notes, violet, sweet spices (nutmeg, cinnamon), wood, mushroom, forest floor. On the palate, good minerality and earthiness with flavors that are substantially less pronounced than the aromas. Medium+ body, very well balanced and integrated, fine chewy tannins, an elegant wine. Finish is medium+. Drinks very well already and it has years of aging potential. Overall, an excellent wine (93).

My first SC bottle ever, what a great perfumed smell, the awakening spring, juicy brambleberry, violets etc., initially rich, deep, fine and expressive, so well balanced that young with ripe tannin, a revelation, maybe it is the very open and simultaneously deep and very Bourgogne style which makes a lot of bottles from this vintage so delicious in their prime, but this SC bottle is even more impressive, bilberry, wild forest strawberry, the core with minerals, graphite, lingering finish, an extraordinary showing today, this great Bourgogne bottle is true happiness, ***(*-*****), around 93,94(+)
