NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This fine red Burgundy from Domaine Sylvain Cathiard is a perfect example of a classic Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru.On the nose, it offers a complex mix of smoky, red-fruit aromas, with a hint of toasted oak and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and round, but with bright acidity and a lively minerality. The tannins are firm and well-integrated, and the finish is long and elegant. All in all, a balanced and harmonious wine with plenty of character.
