DRC La Tache Grand Cru 2009 Cote de Nuits Burgundy 750ml/Btl 6/case

Description

Allen Meadows: This ripe effort really has not changed much since I
last reviewed it from bottle in 2012 save for the fact that it is
perhaps a bit less imposing than many vintages of La Tache at the
same very early stage. But overall I simply repeat my original
review as it is still accurate: A discreet but incredibly complex
nose features notes of spicy, pure and relatively high-toned fruit
that is laced with plenty of rose petal and violet hints. There is
excellent energy and freshness to the lacy and stunningly precise
broad-scaled flavors that build in intensity from the densely
concentrated mid-palate to the explosive and mouth coating finish
that seemingly goes on without end. This is a big LT with ample
muscle and very firm but not aggressive structure along with superb
depth of underlying material and positively mind-blowing length.
But the real genius of this wine is the Zen-like harmony and poise
though note that it is very tightly wound and will need many years
of cellaring before it will be completely ready. In a word,
magnificent.
