La Tâche--Vintage 1966
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Slightly corroded capsules. Excellent general appearance and labels. One bottle with slighlty sign of seepage. Levels: two bottles 1 cm. below cork, three bottles 1.5 cm. below cork, three bottles 2 cm. below cork, three bottles 3 cm. below cork and one bottle 4 cm. below cork Bottles numbered respectively: 20125, 20126, 20127, 20128, 20129, 20130, 20131, 20132, 20133, 20134, 20135, 20136
In original wooden case
Tasting note: glorious in 1992, and three notes since: superb, assertive, 'vast and tannic' at Prince Rupert Lowenstein's in 1996, and early the following year, within a day of each other in New York, a slightly woody, tannic bottle brought to a restaurant for lunch but not given enough time to open up. A fully mature-looking, hefty, spicy, sweet and powerful bottle from Tawfiq Khoury's cellar, with quite a bite and remarkable acidity. Last tasted in New York, Feb 1997. At best. 5 Stars. Michael Broadbent.
