2012 Domaine Sylvain Cathiard, Vosne-Romanee Premier Cru, Aux Malconsorts, Bottle (750ml)

There is plenty of Vosne-style spice in the form of inner mouth perfume along with soft floral and tea nuances. As one would expect from a first-rate example there is excellent volume, power and muscle to the intensely mineral-infused big-bodied flavors that brim with dry extract on the explosively long and impeccably well-balanced finish that goes on and on. This is flat out terrific though note that a minimum of 10 and probably 15 years will be required to fully realize the marvelous development potential. A classic Malconsorts of power and depth. - Allen Meadows Burghound.com, January 2015.
