Sylvain Cathiard, Bourgogne Rouge Vintage:2015 licorice and ample black fruits

licorice and ample black fruits

with a mineral element adding vivacity

then racked into French oak for the malolactic fermentation

yellow and ferrous marlstone that absorbs the moisture well

there is a sense of a winery changing tack and in my opinion

Sylvain Cathiard, Bourgogne Rouge Vintage:2015 licorice and ample black fruits(from a parcel of vines that are in Flagey opposite Clos de Vougeot). Mild reduction pushes the underlying fruit to the background but I doubt that it will persist. The sleek, cool and unusually refined middle weight flavors deliver outstanding depth and length for the genre. This utterly delicious yet serious effort is highly recommended. (87 89) 2018+
