La Tâche--Vintage 1999
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Bottle numbers 10332 - 10334 with non-integrated U.S.-import labels. Bottle numbers 01771-01773 with U.S.-import integrated back labels
Tasting Note: The last of all the Grands Crus to be picked. Low yield. Two notes. At the opening tasting, a floral aromatic upsurge, spectacular, indescribable. Most recently: very deep, immature purple rim; rich, spicy, essence of Pinot, minty, arboreal, great depth; fairly sweet, very distinctive, full-flavoured, silky leathery tannins. To requote my 'iron fist in velvet glove' analogy - and surely one of the greatest-ever La Tâche. July 2003 (******) 2015 - 2030. M.B.
