Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru André Cathiard 1991

The wine

Romanée Saint Vivant is a world-renowned Grand Cru from the Côte de Nuits. The name of this climat comes from St. Vivant’s Abbey at the former monastery of Hautes-Côtes, currently undergoing full restoration. Domaine André Cathiard is located in the heart of Vosne-Romanée village and brings his own charm to this celebrated appellation. The estate believes working with the greatest respect for the vine brings a wine of great purity!
This distinctive wine should be served at 16 °. It would pair excellently with duck served with a cêpe mushroom sauce or roast capon (tender roast chicken is a good alternative if you can’t get capon).

About the Producer Sylvain Cathiard & Fils

The origins of the Domaine Sylvain Cathiard et Fils date back to the 1920s when Alfred Cathiard began to acquire the first parcels of vines in Vosne. The wine heritage of the family is very prestigious with very fine plots of Nuits-Saint-Georges, Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny and Romanée-St-Vivant. The domaine is now managed by Sylvain Cathiard and his son Sébastien. Their wines are of a very high quality and are almost impossible to find in France. They are characterised in particular by their great finesse and their harmony.
