La Tâche 1995

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

Levels into the neck, slightly scuffed labels, 1 scuffed vintage neck label, 1 bottle showing slight signs of old seepage, slightly scuffed capsules

Almost Guerlain-like depths on the nose. Huge hidden power. Massive. Tawny beauty. Plums and cinnamon. Lovely tannic framework covered with rich, fat fruit. Royally Burgundian. A hugely impressive wine, oozing fruit and depth. At 14 years old from magnum, an amazing bouquet of heather honey. Rich opulence - you could spread it on toast! Cinnamon sticks and raspberry jam. A lot of attack and freshness on the palate. Less finesse and sheer breed and class than ‘96, but so thick and rich. A real coffee finish, incredibly ‘arabica’. Coats the mouth and ends sweetly.
