La Tâche Pinot Noir

MEERRYY CHRISTMAS GUYS

Good day at the office

Monday #pizza night

The real deal. Essentially flawless. Balanced, enormously complex and long, and weightless.

DRC La Tache 1990: explosive nose delivering LT’s kaleidoscope of Asian spices, clove, earth. Deep flavor, everything in balance, velvet fans out on the finish. Simply one of the best wines ever made.

Oenomaniacs don't have pearly gates, we have Domaine de la Romanee Conti La Tache 1990. Outrageously sexy, with a celestial perfume of asian spices and underbrush and dried cherry. Eternal finish that tattoos itself on your tongue and palate. Medium to full-bodied, with startling freshness and grip for a quarter-centurion. La Tache 1990 will enthrall for another 30 to 50 years.
