La Tâche is a small Grand Cru vineyard in the village of Vosne-Romanée, at the heart of the Côte de Nuits, and is a monopole of the legendary Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. The 2005 is drinking beautifully now, with beautiful weight on the palate. A heady mix of spice and flowers, with gamey, savoury complexity.

The 2005 La Tâche Grand Cru is just starting to be approachable, although I would not begrudge anyone who might prefer to cellar it for a few more years. I am struck by the wine's huge core of dark fruit and magnificent sense of proportion. Time in the glass brings out the classic range of La Tâche aromatics - black tea, mint, sage, crushed flowers and exotic spice - and yet the 2005 remains a Burgundy of substance and textural depth more than anything else. It's a statuesque Burgundy in which everything comes together. Tasted at a private dinner. Antonio Galloni12th March 2024

The 2005 La Tache epitomizes the unique mysteries of Pinot , with its aromas of game, musk, iris, star anise, vanilla, allspice, and naturally also an abundance of sweet, ripe, implosively tiny-berried fruit. Imagine a black Riesling. On the palate, a vivid freshness of fruit, pungency of spice and flowers, and melting away of what in point of analytical fact are abundant tannins, all engender an almost white wine dynamic of fruit-mineral call-and-response and clear, incisive penetration of flavors to every recess of the mouth. This is a T.R. sort of wine – you just don’t feel the stick. - David Schildknecht
