Description

Overview & Provenance

The 1986 Domaine André Cathiard Les Suchots Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru is a historic, mature Burgundy from one of the finest premier crus in the village. Located directly between Romanée-Saint-Vivant and Richebourg, Les Suchots yields wines of richness, perfume, and broad structure. Consequently, André Cathiard crafted a cuvée that rivals grand crus in both pedigree and longevity.

The 1986 harvest was a classical vintage characterized by firm structure and lively acidity. In addition, extended bottle aging in deep cellars has softened its frame into pure velvet. Therefore, this bottle offers collectors a rare chance to taste pre-Sylvain Cathiard winemaking at its mature summit.

Tasting Profile & Sensory Character

Aromatics: First, the nose reveals dried damson plum, black cherry, and pressed violet flowers. Soon after, tertiary notes of cedar, damp moss, dark cocoa, and forest truffle develop with air.
Palate: In addition, the palate is broad, silky, and balanced with supple, melting tannins. Rich red fruit and savory mineral earth lead into a long, harmonious, and mouthwatering finish.

Service & Culinary Pairings

Serving Suggestions: First, serve at cellar temperature (58°F–62°F / 14°C–17°C) in broad Burgundy stems. Next, decant carefully for 20 minutes to separate natural sediment.

Recommended Pairings: Because of its rich tertiary depth and silky tannins, this mature premier cru pairs well with fine dining dishes:

Pan-roasted duck breast with blackberry sauce
Roast rack of lamb with garlic and thyme
Slow-braised pork tenderloin with wild mushrooms
Aged Époisses or soft washed-rind cheeses
