La Tâche 2013 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (1 BT)

La Tâche 2013

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

French back label

18 hl/hectare. In 2016, quite a tight, concentrated, black fruit nose, holding its cards to its chest. Violets and a certain nuttiness. The taste grows as you savour it - fleshy, fruity and full of freshness. The gravitas is in the centre, with a violetty/rosy aftertaste that lingers long. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
