La Tache 1996 Domaine de la Romanee Conti La Tache 1996 Domaine de la Romanee Conti Cote de Nuits, Grand Cru Excellent levels and appearance In 2009, from bottle, a glorious plummy, opulent nose, full and fleshy. Really plump now. Supreme elegance combined with glycerol on the palate. Damsons on the finish. Great tannin and acidity matching the fruit. This will go the distance, if you can resist it at 13 years old. From magnum the same year, 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 and all confirmed in 2010. SS. Lot 535 6 bts (cn) per lot: HKD 60000-80000 per lot: USD 7500-10000 6.06 ha (14.4 acres), average production 1870 cases, average age of vines: 46 years 75% of the vineyard is constituted from grafts of the Romanee-Conti vineyard. The vineyard is a monopole, the Domaine acquiring what is, today, the La Tache vineyard in 1933 and henceforth recognized as AC La Tache in 1936. Why do I love La Tache? Well, plums and roses and deep, plush velvet fruit is the reason. The texture is always thicker than Romanee-Conti. SS. Quantity: 1
