Estimate
..aromas of pure red fruit and delicate spice. On the palate, too, tremendous richness and generosity even though you know it has so much more to give. Tight, fine tannic/acid stucture that you can clearly feel..
...once reserved nose is now starting to come out of its shell...big and generous flavors...round and rich while remaining wonderfully defined and precise...there is something special about this one...a Zen-like vintage for La Tâche...
Lovely high-pitched aromas and flavors of raspberry, minerals, flowers and spices; this could go into a time capsule. Then juicy, pure and almost magically light on its feet, with terrific verve and spicy lift.
...possesses a sense of sheer density and a viscosity – by no means precluding energy. Scents of bitter-sweet floral perfume, citrus oils, white pepper, peat, and black fruit distillates pungently, almost aggressively fill the nose.
