Critic Scores

I also revisited Cathiard's 2015 Nuit-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Thorey, a wine I had not tasted since early 2017. Wafting from the glass with a bouquet of red berries, orange rind, peonies, rich soil tones and deep carnal nuances, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and muscular, with a rich and concentrated core of fruit, refined tannins and a long, perfumed finish. This is still young, but it's evolving very gracefully indeed.

The 2015 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Thorey 1er Cru offers attractive woodland and tertiary scents on the nose; compact red berry fruit and a touch of black truffle emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins and slightly confit in style, with marmalade-tinged red fruit and allspice toward the finish. Excellent.

Medium to deep purple. The bouquet is excellent, wearing its sunshine very well, with a depth of balanced fruit evident. There are some classical plums, a few strawberry notes, a welcome freshness at the finish, a fine long harmonious wine which will be ready to start in the not too distant future, though will obviously keep as well.

An agreeably fresh nose offers up plenty of spice and earth elements that add breadth to the pretty array of rose petal and various red berry fruit scents. The mouthfeel of the medium weight flavors is a really lovely combination of punch and finesse while delivering excellent depth and length on the slightly warm finale. This is more 2015 in style than the two preceding wines and a wine that should drink reasonably well young but age well too. *Outstanding*
