La Tâche 1995

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

Magnum no. 122, label slightly bin-marked, purchased from Zachys New York 26 February 2015

Almost Guerlain-like depths on the nose. Huge hidden power. Massive. Tawny beauty. Plums and cinnamon. Lovely tannic framework covered with rich, fat fruit. Royally Burgundian. A hugely impressive wine, oozing fruit and depth. At 14 years old from magnum, an amazing bouquet of heather honey. Rich opulence - you could spread it on toast! Cinnamon sticks and raspberry jam. A lot of attack and freshness on the palate. Less finesse and sheer breed and class than '96, but so thick and rich. A real coffee finish, incredibly 'arabica'. Coats the mouth and ends sweetly. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 98

饒具嬌蘭香薰的內涵，內歛含蓄。深藏不露的同時亦有蓄勢待發的勁度。色澤如琥珀般亮麗並帶有李子味和玉桂味。怡人的丹寧框架下包含了肥美的果香，堪稱布艮地葡萄酒的貴族。此酒能將果香和內涵發揮得淋漓盡致，教人嘆為觀止。嚐過一瓶珍藏了14年的1.5公升裝，有著石南花蜜糖的奇美甘香，有如玉桂條及覆盆子果醬一樣，濃厚豐腴得幾乎可以塗抹在吐司上。口感強勁，清新可喜。相比1996年份的出品，此酒則較為內斂，既沒有那般細膩也沒有那般高尚。可是卻更為濃稠豐厚。咖啡一樣的餘韻，就如極佳的「阿拉比加」咖啡。香氣在口腔內凝聚，回甘香甜。（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
