La Tâche 2001 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (12 BT)

La Tâche 2001

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

2x6-pack original wooden cases banded prior to inspection, 2 Slightly bin-soiled labels, 1 slightly nicked monopole label

In 2010, intense candied violets on the nose. Almost honied - a first for me in La Tâche. A lovely, rosy muskiness and a certain briariness. Then all the raspberries come out. A total mouthful of raspberry and cherry fruit. Wonderfully vivacious. A Rubens- like aftertaste. So pure and sleek and yet wonderfully exciting and direct.
