Saturday, August 10, 2013 - Great Dinner Wines (Healesville Victoria): Will be 100+ in another ten years but because the Rousseau next to it blew everybody away and was the far more approachable of the two today it gets a rather meaningless score. Meaningless because these two wines are perfect. The Rousseau has reached the peak a bit sooner than the LaTache but it will also be off the scale, other worldly, with more time. A great opportunity to see this wine and will I ever get the chance to see it again? Who knows but at the price it commands today I doubt Ill ever be able to stash a few away. Tonight this has been donated by James and I am absolutely blown away by it. Dont expect to see that hedonistic LaTache aroma for at least ten years I reckon as this wine is backward. There are hints of beauty in this. At the moment its losing its rawness of youth but is like a sleeping giant yet to awake. Its all there, power, finesse mindblowing stuff. Two of the most profound wines I've ever had. I will make myself a promise to try this wine again one day somehow but not in the next decade.
