LA TACHE 1996 DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI |

La Tâche 1996 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Côte de Nuits, Grand CruLevels into the neck, slightly stained labels, 2 nicked labels, stained vintage neck labelsFrom magnum in 2010, a marvellous, vivacious, vibrant bouquet that bounces out at you. Almost heady blackcurrant leaves. Extraordinary, piercing intensity - cuts like a knife. Great, sweet, strawberry fruit on the palate. A massive fruit-bowl of a wine. Blackcurrant wine gums. Sheer heaven. Just lingers forever with its red and black fruit flavours and silky texture. Cassis and coffee - and pure bliss. Breed in liquid form.
