February 10, 2024 - More air than last bottle. Mesmerised by its alluring nose. What a perfume. Today a great bottle with many years ahead.

December 12, 2023 - Salon Ficofi Paris walkabout tasting and dinner, no detailed tasting notes. From Methuselah, yes you heard right 6L! Aubert de Villaine was there and the team was pouring three different DRC's all from this large format. The 1991 Grand Echezeaux (95pt) showed fully mature forest floor notes with autumn leaves, the 2000 La Tache (96pt) had a similar profile but with a bit more complexity, and the 2019 Corton Charlemagne (97pt) which was my favorite. This wine is racy, flinty, generous but not as opulent as the Montrachet, which I am not such a fan of.

December 11, 2023 - From Mathusalem - the LT complexity shows. Delicate and fine. I believe this is slowly marching past its peak now.

7/1/2004 (link)(Romanée-Conti La Tâche) Together with a few 1997's, this is one of the few wines you can really enjoy now that have been produced since 1995, despite it only being released a year ago. It was actually an hour before I started to taste this, I was just captivated by the scent. Medium ruby colour with a cherry red rm. The nose assaults the palate with an incredible green, spicy note - seems to have a lavender component - quite unlike the tasting just over a year ago. Slowly the 'green-ness' becomes more focused as cedar and amazingly becomes more intense. After 90 minutes there's a whiff of smoke and finally white pepper, blood-orange and red berry-fruits - that's closer to what I remember! The palate is impeccably balanced with intense fruit red and black berries. Very long. The palate can't quite match the amazing intensity of the nose - but this is the real deal and a real honey.

3/1/2003 (link)(Romanée-Conti La Tâche) Both the shade and depth of colour match that of the Romanée Saint-Vivant. The nose is at first disappointingly understated and faintly spicy, but with swirling; first red cherry, then black cherry, then blackcurrant, then kirsch, hints of vanilla, then orange – something new every sniff – then the nose goes deeper, showing a little plum and coffee – frankly stunning, who needs to drink this wine? A fat, sappy palate with very concentrated fruit, tannins that are more silk than velvet and a multitude of flavours playing over your tongue – fantastic texture. The maximum interest for me today comes from the aromatics, but this is exceptional wine by any measure.

2/6/2003 (link)(DRC La Tache) Lovely nose. Black cherry, super-exotic spices, blueberries, exotic asian lettuces (bok choy). Very penetrating. Hard to place the other scents because I have never smelled anything quite like it. Incredible on the palate. Forceful with velvety tannins and a suppleness unmatched by any Burgundy I have ever had. Concentrated and powerful with amazingly silky tannins. Wow this is exotic stuff. I was in awe. I would love to taste this in fifteen years.
