Reviews & Scores
"Incredible nose that reminded me of an 18-year old supermodel: way too young but everyone still has to stop and stare aromas of roses and crushed red fruits, bursting with stones and minerals and rounded out by a little cinnamon/nutmeg spiciness aromas of brand new leather so fresh and new that it is worthy of a Gucci or Prada tag the palate, however, was greatly shut down the wine was in hiding it was like a 98-point nose and a 92 point palate at first. The wine did start to open up slowly but surely and define itself on the palate after a couple of hours, and the acids emerged from a dormant state to really express themselves and let you know they were in the room an earthquake of a La Tâche that shakes the room and stains the soul."

It exhibits awesomely ripe red and black fruits, raw meat, and Asian spices, all of which are encased in sweet toasty oak. This full-bodied, wide, thick, focused, harmonious, and intense wine releases amazingly powerful layers of candied black cherries and blackberries. It is structured, totally precise, pure, and possesses an exceptionally long finish loaded with abundant sweet tannins. WA
