  Looked like a wine that had plenty of whole bunch, but when the de-stemmed Cathiard was revealed, we knew we had been tricked by the vintage. Loads of rose petal and dried flower action. Red of fruit. Some beef stock and Hoisin development sneaking in. Silky and layered. Drinking somewhere near its apogee.

  Cathiard Malconsorts Vertical (Longo Seafood): Where the 2001's strength was on the palate, here on the 2007 it was on the nose. Beautiful, multi-dimensional fragrance from pop n pour that continued over the three hour tasting. It's a wine that shows its class, but also clearly shows the vintage, with lots of elements coming together in a fresh and seemingly finished package. The wine is laced with herbs (causing some to guess stems), soil/spice, and has a more reserved fruit expression similar to the 2001, but with slightly sweeter fruit and less assertive acidity. Not especially long or complex on the palate, it still possesses an aristocratic air to it, and unsurprisingly, acting like an excellent 2007.
  
  Served second in a vertical with a 2001, 2008, 2014, and 2019 this showed the best aromatics, my overall #2 of the tasting.

  Bâtard-Montrachet and Cathiard Malconsorts Dinner with Acker (Brindille - Chicago IL): In a long Cathiard Malconsorts flight, while also next to the Cathiard 2007 Romanée St. Vivant. Lots of elegant red fruit everywhere. Much like the RSV, just clearly less density or dry extract, but also plenty of muscle. At its peak now.

  Sixteenth Annual White Truffle Dinner (Inovasi - Lake Bluff IL): In 02/07/10 vertical. Complex array of red cherry, red berry, black cherry with rich baking spice. Great balance and charm with good weight. At its peak. My favorite of the vertical for enjoyment today, but the 2010 will eclipse this 2007 in the very near future.

  The 2007 Cathiard Malconsorts is drinking gorgeously. High-toned and distinctively sleek red cherry and sweet spices. Admirable purity and delineated floral note. Medium bodied, well-balanced ith a good sense of energy. Delicious. (93/100)
