Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Vosne-Romanee Premier Cru Aux Malconsorts 2020 AOC 0.75l

The Domaine Sylvain Cathiard Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Malconsorts 2020 AOC 0.75l is a noble expression of the Côte de Nuits, born from the encounter between a terroir of rare elegance and careful management that places the dignity of the soil and the maturity of the vineyard at the center. In Vosne-Romanée, Aux Malconsorts stands out for its mineral texture and aromatic depth that evokes sand, marl, and a slight incidence of sandstone, a microclimate that caresses the differences between one vintage and the next. The producer's history is anchored in a family tradition that has built its identity on continuity, care, and deliberate slowness: each vintage is treated as a new chapter, where the goal is to restore the terroir's authenticity without forcing it. This philosophy is reflected in the cellar, where fermentation takes place using indigenous yeasts and aging occurs under controlled conditions, with careful management of contact with the wood. Neither austere nor dreamy, it is capable of modulating the tension between fruit and minerality. The result is an elegant verticality, a silky texture on the palate, and a density that doesn't pretend to explode, but rather to grow over time, inviting a tasting that unfolds sip after sip: aromas of ripe red fruits, cherry, hints of violet, delicate pepper, and a subtle spice reminiscent of bark, while a mineral note—almost a breath of stone—guides the flavor progression toward a clean and persistent finish. In this Domaine Sylvain Cathiard range, Aux Malconsorts 2020 occupies a prominent position: it is not just a collector's bottle, but a concrete embodiment of the producer's promise to restore the terroir's most intimate essence, while maintaining an accessible character for those approaching Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru. It is a choice that requires time, care, and an understanding of the language of wine to transform it into a reliable companion for meditative moments, a virtue that STELT recognizes as fundamental: measured elegance, insistent depth, and a longevity that reveals itself to those who wait.
