2018 - Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Thorey, Sylvain Cathiard

Tasting Notes

91-93
Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 09 Jan 20
Offering up notes of wild berries, peonies and spices, framed by rich soil tones and a deft touch of oak, the 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Thorey is medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a deep core of fruit, lively acids and a beautifully defined finish.

The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Thorey 1er Cru has certainly lost its "aloof" personality that I encountered in bottle. Now, it is quite opulent on the nose with generous red and black fruit intermixed with black truffle and mint. Indeed, this develops a slightly medicinal quality with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a tart entry. There is fine depth, but it is a bit pinched on the medicinal, camphor-tinged finish.
