375ml. Past peak. Dark gold color. Honey and burnt caramel throughout the nose and palate. All that said, I enjoyed it! Probably more of a dessert wine at this point, but very nice for what it is. — 8 months ago

Aux Murgers Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2005

One of the more accessible and expressive 05’s I’ve had in a while, Cathiard’s Vosne-esque Aux Murgers is open and giving wafting perfumed and spice laced dark berry fruit with violets, black tea and damp earth. The palate is pure silk, elegant and seductive, perhaps even belying the burly vintage typicity, with terrific persistence, balanced acids and soft tannins. An 05 that is finally ready to go! Beautiful wine. — 10 months ago

Christophe Mignon

Brut Champagne Pinot Meunier

The aromas are tropical lemon blossoms and being on a pebble beach. Lemon custard and the hint of pineapple (including that feeling on your tongue that pineapple gives you - in a very light good way) round finish. Vintages 2014/2015. Disgorged 1/6/2018. TBL — 4 years ago

@Shengli Hu Always great . My only disappointment I aged one a few years ago and it really came up short. I realize one data point does not make a trend .

@Shengli Hu out of curiosity I went back and looked at my notes. Had the ‘13 in’ 17 and then a year later completely different wine. Now that I think about it, maybe it was just a bad bottle.

Aux Reignots Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2012

The 2012 Cathiard Aux Reignots (along with Malconsorts and Petits Monts, my favorite 1er cru Vosne vineyard), is much more masculine and dark fruited than the MG. Really a great side by side. There is some reduction and prevalent new oak, but there is just such depth and structure to this wine and it’s destined to live for the long haul. But unlike how reticent many 12’s can be right now, as the reduction dissipates, it offers a great deal of pleasure. Reignots is really a special vineyard. — 4 years ago
