One of the more accessible and expressive 05’s I’ve had in a while, Cathiard’s Vosne-esque Aux Murgers is open and giving wafting perfumed and spice laced dark berry fruit with violets, black tea and damp earth. The palate is pure silk, elegant and seductive, perhaps even belying the burly vintage typicity, with terrific persistence, balanced acids and soft tannins. An 05 that is finally ready to go! Beautiful wine.

Straight out of bottle good. Dried dark cherry, tea and some leather/menthol. Delicious and for drinking now.

Earthy, very structured wine with muscular tannins, black fruit and forest floor....needs a lot more time to show full potential.

Clean, precise, elegant wine. Not the burly NSG that I was expecting. 1999
