95 Points

Thursday, February 4, 2016 - The 90 La Tache dinner also 05 Coche CC, 88 Krug and 01 Rousseau CSJ (Decanter restaurant, St. Regis): I am so excited and expecting a 100 point experience. Pop and pour, the nose is unyielding, a bit of lemon curd, coconut as Paul aptly describes and lanoline. Incredible concentration yet very linear as the fruit is beautifully layered, reminds me the weightlessness of young D’Yquem, strong presence of mineral and acidity and seamless finish. We decant the wine and drank over four hours. The nose opens up a bit displaying some white fruits but it remains pretty coiled. Oh well, ces’t la vie! Fortunately the next wine more than compensates by providing one of the most emotional wine drinking experience of my life.
