Sylvain Cathiard, Nuits Saint Georges Murgers Vintage:2004 I know only one other

I know only one other person in Piedmont who has a similarly sharp memory that goes that far back

the 2007 Grahams Vintage Port is complete in every way

don't be fooled by its forward approach

graphite and smoke is not intense but gains vigor with continued aeration

The 2013 vintage is characterized by a slightly more streamlined mouthfeel (which isn't saying much given the baseline enormity of these wines) with carefully etched aromas of black cherry

Sylvain Cathiard, Nuits Saint Georges Murgers Vintage:2004 I know only one other(from a . 47 ha parcel of 65+ year old vines). There is enough reduction to render the nose difficult to evaluate though it does seem ripe. Otherwise the restrained medium weight flavors possess excellent structural ripeness as well as fine size, weight and power on the intense, harmonious and mouth coating finish. This concentrated effort is a classic Murgers of muscle and power but no rusticity. (91 93) 2026+
