La Tâche 2003
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
An August vintage. With a tiny yield of 14.5 hl/hectare, this has real authority, great weight and depth, marvellously camouflaged by the elegance and freshness. In 2010 from magnum, a really "bloomy", rose-like nose, with enormous freshness, scent and perfume. Just a dream - 1947, but maybe more healthy! Huge forest fruits, exotic spices and yet pure, classic and noble. Clear candied roses finish. The sweetness is overwhelming, but not mawkish - with youthful vigour and delightful acidity.
