I've enjoyed the 61 La Tache historically and was looking forward to this bottle. Less engaging than the 61 LT, but I both liked it and found it intriguing. With low consensus around the table, I was in the positive camp.

Orange-red color, old Pinot nose. Fading (but bottle with a shoulder fill). Excellent. Rich and full in the mouth with perfect balance. Sweet, old fruit. Real character and very tasty. Hint of blackberry in the finish. My last bottle : (

Sensational 12 year old vines... reddish brown, tons of bricking. Incredibly intense, intoxicating stems dried flower and tea aromatics, which transformed into RC cola notes. Pure elegance which offered attractive red fruit until fading after 2 hours. (2944/6080)

Le Cinq Legends Dinner 2018 (Le Cinq Restaurant, George Cinq Four Seasons, Paris): Stunning nose. The flavor complexity is awe-inspiring. Lots of brooding earthy and mushroom notes. Goes on and on open the finish. Pure royalty

Delicate but with real weight. Given 1.5 hours of air time but needed more. Perfect condition bottle.
