2019 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La TâcheLa Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
11/2/2022 - NostraBacchus Likes this wine: 100 pointsTasted in a arrivage tasting of all DRC 2019. Overall, the 2019s DRC are beautifully perfumed, very ripe wines, but they also carry a nice vein of acidity that is making them brighter and fresh. The bottles show incredible class, but also a certain ripeness that might be something that needs getting used to for purists. I thought that the terroir was showing beautifully, despite the ripeness of the year. The wines seemeed very different and true to their cru, especially at the beginning of the tasting and again with quite some air. In between the differences were just a tiny bit muddled. |

2016 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La TâcheLa Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
10/23/2019 - sirpat00 Likes this wine: 98 pointsPart of a 2016 DRC tasting, a vintage that impressed with how approachable it already was, purity, elegance and versatility. For me, the La Tâche scored best, followed by Richebourg and Romanée-Conti – although the latter may well surpass the La Tâche in the long run. Corton came in last. Montrachet, Échezeaux and Grands-Échezeaux were not produced commercially that year and older vintages offered instead. |

8/8/2020 - finediningnyc Likes this wine: 98 pointsNormally don’t post restaurant wines on here. But gotta post the DRC note. Drank at Fresh Run Farm for the “Quince at The Farm” lunch series in northern Cali. Soaring aromatics, tremendous complexity and crazy expressive. Red raspberries, exotic spices, roses, fine acidity and an energetic and ample mid-palate with a seamless balance and a finish for days. Absurdly delicious even at this stage. 5 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (4) |

2014 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La TâcheLa Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
1/20/2022 - Burgnick Likes this wine: 97 pointsOpened at 10am and started serving at 9pm. The nose is absolutely regal with intense Vose spice, stems, darkish red fruit and wood spice. Palate has all the La Tache stuffing and depth you would expect even at this young age. This is already so good now which is truly impressive. Love the 2014 DRC. |

10/23/2019 - Cailles wrote: 97 pointsDRC 2016 – what survived the frost: Intro: Another great vintage. At this early stage I slightly prefer the 2016s over the 2015s at the same point last year as the former show a bit more open and complex (due to a less dominant fruit core). Out of the 5 reds, the Richebourg is my #1 with its early charms and seductiveness. The La Tache is the most complex and shows a tad more open than the Romanee Conti, which is so dense and packed that it very likely will reach higher highs than all other wines. The RSV also boasts the fantastic structure and finesse without the incredible depth of the big 3. |

It is rich, full and powerful without carrying any excess fat. It has such great presence and drive, with spice laden fruits lingering on the palate for a long time after swallowing. 4 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

11/10/2021 - joshabramson Likes this wine: 98 pointsThe aromatics on this wine are insane. So pretty and elegant, this really shows you why DRC and more specifically La Tache is the real deal. Exceptional wine with lots of room to grow. |

1990 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La TâcheLa Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
2/4/2016 - dcwino wrote: 100 pointsThe 90 La Tache dinner also 05 Coche CC, 88 Krug and 01 Rousseau CSJ (Decanter restaurant, St. Regis): The 05 Coche Corton Charlemagne was a slight letdown and I am a bit nervous. Pop and pour, the cork is perfectly moist and elastic. Quick sniff at the bottle, the wine seems correct. A small pour to a Zalto burgundy, I am speechless and becoming very emotional. The nose is simply perfect, beguiling interplay of unbelievably complex tertiary notes and incredibly explosive perfectly ripe hedonistic pinot fruit. Everything that you look for in a perfect Burgundy is present in abundance, decadent black fruits, Vosne spices, sous bois, truffle, cornucopia of flowers, roasted coffee beans, licorice, liquid smoke, stem, perfume and incense to name a few. The palate is also perfect, intense, subtle, precise, fresh and energetic all at the same time. It is certainly ripe reflecting the 90 vintage but still remains perfectly fresh, precise and balanced. The finish is never ending. This is perfect now and will remain perfect at least for the rest of my life, transforming like the monumental 62. Truly an emotional and spiritually uplifting experience. From the same batch as the last bottle drank last year. |

10/24/2021 - Cailles wrote: 97 pointsComplete DRC Vintage Horizontals 2017 vs 2018: Since Covid didn’t allow for a proper arrivage tasting last year, we tasted the 2017s in direct taste-offs vs their 2018 counterparts this year. All bottles were opened a few hours earlier, not decanted but we got enough time to follow each wine over 45+ minutes in the glass which allowed for proper aeration and analysis. A few observations: 1) The 2017s are disarmingly easy to drink, charming, soft and open. 2) The 2018 show more depth but will need more time to flesh out, open up and become rounder. 3) Best ever Cortons. Slowly but surely they grow into their allocation (not market) price. 4) The showstopping RSVs edge out the Richebourgs with the purest fruit expression vs raw and today a bit unintegrated power. 5) The La Taches and RCs are playing in their own category in terms of complexity but the RCs are a bit closed. 6) The Montrachets are fabulous with a sharp, complex and complete 2017 as a consensus WOTN and a 2018 which is a bit broader but still amazing. |

Despite being so young, perfectly harmonious palate, layers upon layers of opulent yet pure black fruit, silky and weightless, perfect balance, detail and precision, bright acidity and strong mineral and the finish that never ends. This particular bottle flirts with perfection. mesmerizing! |

2007 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La TâcheLa Tâche Grand Cru Pinot Noir more |
5/27/2016 - Tim Heaton Likes this wine: NRLove the exciting color; the marriage of underbrush and sweet fruits is equally as exciting, though it's far from reaching the apogee of its complexity. And even though this was Audozed overnight, this was still holding back - I suggest at least 7-8 years of rest; if your cellar is cold, let it rest for 15. Served blind, I guessed the producer, but not the vintage. What an unexpected treat, and a great way to wind up a 3 month long tour of Italy's wine regions. 4 people found this helpful, do you?

Unlike other wines passed and poured, then quickly tasted at Paulee, I lingered over this wine and had the good fortune to go back for a second taste. Monumental in every way - fruit, spice, elegant development, layers of flavor and texture, intensity, length. Best wine I have ever had. |

8/22/2019 - dcwino wrote: 100 pointsTwo friends sharing three bottles of wine - Part 4 (Ruth’s Chris, Tysons Corner, VA): Explosive nose displaying intense perfectly ripe black and red fruit, blackberry, blackberry liqueur, black cherry, raspberry concentrate, a hint of licorice, Chinese medicine, Vosne spice, black tea, espresso bean, liquid smoke, lavender, a hint of DRC stem, sandalwood and limestone dust. Unbelievable concentration, layers upon layers of concentrated black fruit, unctuous, rich and opulent yet silky and sensual, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, mostly masked very fine tannins and the finish that never ends. It confirms once again that this is the biggest and most concentrated La Tache at least since the 90, only equal by the 15. It remains very youthful and doesn’t show much sous bois yet it is incredibly complex. If you prefer a lot of sous bois and tertiary notes as I do, this can easily improve for three decades or more. Monumental! |

Ripe black and red cherry on both nose and palate. Less perfumed/ spice aromatic character vs Romanée St. Vivant or Richebourg, but there is a seamless harmony here between aromas and flavors that is stunning for a wine this young. Everything is already so integrated and elegant and hinting at unfolding layers upon layers of complexity. Perhaps a bit drying right now on its finish, but I fully expect that will easily soften. 96-98 point potential. |

A entry that takes your breath away and puts you off a bit. So present. So clean. An indescribable balance between being deeply concentrated and powerful, yet so refined and elegant. Dark powerful fresh berries, forest floor and deep salts that impress. Light animal tones in the background. Perfect tannins. Long and energetic finish. Not much to draw here. 98 points. For now.

8/30/2018 - dcwino wrote: 99 pointsPrep for The Tenth Edition of the Villa d'Este Wine Symposium (Bistro Bis - Washington D.C.): Incredible finesse and complexity for such a young wine. Youthful yet complex nose displaying purest black fruit, sap, perfume, lavender, tea, Vosne spice, a hint of stem and crushed rocks. Perfectly balanced sensual palate, layers upon layers of decadent yet pure black fruit, airy and weightless, perfect amount of acidity, incredible amount of mineral, very fine tannins and the never ending finish. The 09 RSV shows incredibly well yet this is even more detailed, pure and precise. Although it already provides incredible drinking pleasure, the 09 will become one of the greatest La Taches in another twenty years equaling the 90 and 99. |

11/18/2022 - Jammy Wine wrote: 97 pointsThe 2016 La Tache is more reserved than the 2015 La Tache, requires more time in the glass to reveal its floral and spice-infused nose. 31hl/ha, interestingly slightly higher than 2015 (26hl/ha). Explosion of exotic spices, fleshy dark cherries, ethereal notes of rose petal, delicate stems and liquorice. Extremely captivating and detailed scents. Top concentration and poised tannins. Satisfying now and will benefit a few more years of ageing. Drink from 2026. (97/100) |

6/14/2023 - hprphf Likes this wine: 98 points04304/16644, double decanted. Incredibly concentrated, lacy, spicy and dimensional, one of the best renditions of this wine, perhaps ever so slightly behind the almighty 1999. Pure red fruit, lifted all spice, vanilla pastry cream, mint, herbal tea, rose petal, chamomile, zesty, chocolate, meaty, citrus caramel, violet, lightly peppery, roasted game smoke and spice. On the palate it is whole, so full in itself, at full display of the masculinity of terroir, while keeping itself not only ethereal but also tangible. So much energy but just so seamless, a stronger RC so to say, flawless at the moment. While “accessible” like the rest of the vintage, decades of patience will reward more than greatly. 98-100 |
