2023 Athens Wine Event; 12/8/2023-12/9/2023 (Athens, Greece): Tasted blind , bottle 02222. Happy to have tried this blind cause the star gazing of the label would have for sure affected our judgement. Frankly this is paying the price of being a 2003. The fruit has a burnt feel to it and lacks the elegance of what should be this magical wine. Reminded us of the 2003 La Mouline that was so uncharacteristic of what this wine could be and it’s just not a La Tache. It’s a 2003 and frankly they should not have released this. 91 at best

A Good Monday, Vol II:: Always special to drink LaTache. Nose is a treat: burgundian royalty, really. This is what great Burgundy smells like. Beautifully integration of fruit and body. It has some '03 ripeness, but so complex, yet seamless on the palate. Still youthful.

la tache is always a treat , it is no other for this bottle, but not the best la tache I had, you really can feel the hot summer from 2003 in this wine, the nose was really sweet also the mouth , I had hay and in the mouth also rough , this are all outcomes from a to warm vintage, never less , if you drink only this bottle on a evening it's still a great bottle !

(Romanée-Conti La Tâche) The nose starts in a similar vein to that of the GE; exciting, deep, musky, before broading to an even wider panorama of powdery red fruit aromas. Mouthfilling and concentrated. There is an easily preceptible extra density to this wine. The marvellous finish is easily a match for the GE, and overall, this is the first wine that manages to better it. Superb.
