La Tâche--Vintage 1962
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Domaine-embossed wax capsule. Slightly bin-soiled label. Level 4.5 cms. below base of cork
Tasting Note: One of my rare 6-star wines. Seven notes. As so often, pale and hard in its youth. As with other top DRCs, they gain colour and by the mid-1970s, it had become deeper, sweeter, more opulent, its fragrance filling the room. Superb, exotic, multi-faceted in the 1980s. The two most recent notes, in June 2000: rich, scented perfection. Beginning to lose its redness and showing some age on nose and palate. Yet its flavour penetrating, developing and holding well. Last tasted September 2005 ****** A great and rare experience. M.B.
