Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsorts 2009 is a 1er Cru Burgundy Pinot Noir from the hallowed Vosne-Romanée appellation of the Côte de Nuits. The 1er Cru vineyard of Malconsorts is located on the border with Nuits-St-Georges, and immediately adjacent to La Tâche. In good vintages, it is considered by many Burgundy lovers to be a Grand Cru in all but name. "Tasted out of barrel at the domaine. As usual, the nose is more closed and introverted than the other Vosne Premier Crus, but it reluctantly unfurls to reveal darker, more broody fruit with hints of violet. The palate is very structured, more stoic but with great breeding. This is a long-term wine that may not show its true colours for several years, but once again there is great mineralité showing on the long, persistent finish. Intuition tells me that this may eventually surpass the RSV." Wine Advocate, 2011
