Tasting Notes
| Robert Parker 95 | |
| "It is intensely profound, and super-ripe yet harmonious. Its extraordinarily long finish (it tails off with a sweet kirsch kiss) flabbergasted me. I could not help but think of the finishes of two wines I love - Chateau Rayas and Chateau Lafleur." | |
| Wine Spectator 95 | |
| "A sensational La Tache. Balanced with lots of beautiful fruit, but above all it has harmony etched all over it." | |
| Allen Meadows, Burghound 94 | |
| Stylistically, this borrows elements from both the '97 and the '96 as it combines moderate floral notes with most of the spice, soy and hoisin of the '96 plus the densest flavors of any vintage to this point. The mid-palate doesn't have quite the same sap of the '96 and the long, dusty finish offers a hint of chocolate. This too has the potential to be very long lived. Multiple notes with consistent results; in fact, a recent bottle tasted in Burgundy was even better than the bottle in the big La Tāche tasting held in early '03. |
