Community Tasting Note

Sunday, February 1, 2015 - BWC 2015 - Lafarge Clos des Chênes (mostly) and a few examples of Vosne Romanée: I fully expected to be let down by this, my first experience drinking a bottle of La Tâche. Not the case. The wine opened up over about a half hour in the glass and showed sparkling and incredibly articulate Indian spice aromatics - "like Kalustyans," someone said. The intensity belies the lightness of color and body, and the wine was wonderfully complex. There was almost no fruit in the way of the spices on the nose - it surprised me in how it felt like all layers had been stripped away and we had this incredibly transparent view into the wine and the place. A great experience.
