Description

La Tache 1998
Domaine de la Romanee Conti
lbsl, ll, nl, scl, #06487
Bottle (1)

This focused estate collection features some of the great wines of Burgundy. Many wines were purchased winery direct and all were perfectly stored in a purpose-built, temperature and humidity controlled cellar.

"Stunning nose of red and black fruits, oriental spices, tea and leather notes. Intensely sappy flavor with wave after wave of ever changing flavors. The personality here is edgy, cool, confident and pure with the ripe acidity framing the flavors. The Richebourg is long but the La Tâche is even longer. A great effort." (95 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound #1, Jan. 2001)

“Like all of the '98 DRC reds, the clarity is a bit cloudy and not limpid though it does not seem to affect the purity of the aromas that now display some subtle secondary hints on the stunning nose of ripe red and black fruits, oriental spices, tea and leather notes. There is superb intensity to the dense, serious and strikingly complex flavors that are underpinned by ripe tannins and huge length on the balanced, mouth coating and impressively long finish. The personality here is muscular and bold with the ripe acidity framing the flavors and wonderfully focused finale. It's worth pointing out that while this is still on the way up, I was pleasantly surprised at how approachable the '98 LT was even though there is more development potential to realize. Multiple and consistent notes.” (95 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, Apr. 2015)
