LA TÂCHE
The second monopole of DRC and only just over 6 hectares of vines, magnums are rare - even more so in the 1959 vintage. The full case of 1969 is a real treat, the '78 the greatest wine of the vintage and a full case of 1985 is not to be missed
La Tâche--Vintage 1959
Côte de Nuits, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Lot 469 level: 5cm with dampstained label. Lot 470 levels: one 3cm, one 3.5cm, one 4cm, one 5cm, three 5.5cm, one 6cm and one 6.5cm; lightly soiled labels; one with signs of seepage
Impressively deep, rich, with lovely gradations of colour; very fragrant, spicy, peppery nose; very sweet, full of alcohol, extract, flavour. Vast yet velvety. A great wine. GVWB
