Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Vosne-Romanée 1. cru Aux Malconsorts 2013

Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts 2013 comes from one of Burgundy’s most coveted Premier Cru sites, often spoken of in the same breath as grand cru vineyards. Sitting next to the legendary La Tâche, Aux Malconsorts is known for Pinot Noir with remarkable depth, power, and perfume, and in Cathiard’s hands it becomes something especially precise and compelling.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a deep, polished ruby tone, hinting at both concentration and maturity. The nose is beautifully layered, offering dark cherry, blackberry, violet, oriental spice, and subtle woodland notes, with air bringing out more exotic spice, mineral nuance, and the seductive floral elegance that defines Vosne-Romanée. The palate is intense yet silky, with dark Pinot Noir fruit framed by fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a firm, graceful structure. Flavors of ripe red and black berries, spice, and chalky mineral tones carry through a long, refined finish. Already showing some mature Burgundy complexity, it still has the balance and energy to evolve well for many more years.

Production
Aux Malconsorts is a highly prized Premier Cru vineyard in Vosne-Romanée, positioned beside La Tâche on limestone-rich Burgundy terroir that naturally brings finesse, aromatic lift, and mineral tension. The 2013 vintage reflects Sylvain Cathiard’s careful, detail-driven approach, capturing concentration without losing elegance. The result is a wine shaped by classic Burgundy precision, with vinification aimed at preserving purity, structure, and the distinctive perfume of the site.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for dishes that can complement its depth without overwhelming its elegance, such as roast duck, pigeon, veal, game birds, mushroom risotto, or truffle-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended if the bottle is opened in its youth or early maturity to allow the aromatics to fully unfold.
