Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Nuits St. Georges Aux Thorey 2023

Domaine Sylvain Cathiard’s Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Thorey 2023 is a finely tuned Premier Cru Pinot Noir that combines delicacy, precision, and real depth. Transparent red-fruit character, floral lift, and a distinctive spicy edge make it a compelling expression of one of Burgundy’s most characterful villages. Still youthful, it already shows the promise that has made Cathiard one of the most sought-after names in the region.

Tasting Notes
The wine shows a graceful, transparent profile with aromas of red berries, forest floor, and orange blossom, gradually opening to violet notes as it breathes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and juicy, with ripe, supple tannins and a core of spicy red fruit layered with hints of brown spice. The finish is gripping and persistent, giving the wine both tension and charm. While it is already impressive in its finesse, this is a wine that should benefit from a few more years in bottle, gaining further complexity and harmony as it evolves.

Production
Sourced from the Premier Cru climat Aux Thorey in Nuits-Saint-Georges, the wine reflects the depth and mineral tension associated with this part of Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives here on well-situated vineyard soils that help preserve freshness while allowing ripe, expressive fruit to develop. The 2023 vintage was harvested with care and vinified in the restrained, detail-oriented style for which Domaine Sylvain Cathiard is known, aiming to preserve purity of fruit, floral nuance, and site expression. The result is a polished, terroir-driven wine with both elegance and structure.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with duck breast, roasted poultry, veal, mushroom risotto, or game birds, where its red-fruited brightness and subtle spice can complement savory flavors. It is best served at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended if opened young to help the wine unfold more fully.
