Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Hautes Cotes de Nuits Dames Huguette 2023

Domaine Sylvain Cathiard’s Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Les Dames Huguette 2023 is a polished Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most admired names, offering a graceful introduction to the domaine’s precise, terroir-driven style. Sourced from the cooler slopes above the Côte de Nuits, it combines charm and freshness with the kind of finesse that has made Cathiard a benchmark producer in Burgundy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine shows a bright, translucent ruby color typical of finely made Pinot Noir. The nose is lifted and expressive, with aromas of raspberries, rose petals, and a subtle hint of orange peel, giving it a fragrant and very inviting profile. The palate is medium-bodied, supple, and seamless, with a juicy, open-knit texture and a clean, savory finish marked by a delicate saline edge. It is already approachable in youth for its freshness and charm, but it should also develop added complexity over the next several years, gaining more depth and nuance with bottle age.

Production
Les Dames Huguette comes from the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, where the higher altitude and cooler climate help preserve acidity and aromatic purity in the Pinot Noir. While detailed vinification information for this cuvée is not provided, Domaine Sylvain Cathiard is known for careful fruit selection and a restrained, precision-focused approach in the cellar that highlights purity, balance, and site expression.

Food & Serving
This wine works beautifully with roast chicken, duck breast, mushroom risotto, veal, or dishes featuring earthy root vegetables and herbs. Serve it slightly cool, around 15–16°C, and consider a brief decant of 20–30 minutes if opening young to help the aromatics unfold.
