Earth-laced blackberries can be discerned in the nose of the 2001 La Tache. Suave, plush, and regal, it boasts loads of candied black fruits in its deep character. This supple wine reveals superb clarity of fruit and an impressively long, fruit-filled finish. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2012. Concerning the 2001s, de Villaine, the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti’s co-director, stated that “it was not an easy year, it was a real roller coaster for vignerons. The estate’s vineyards, like everyone in Burgundy, had rot infestations so we did two harvests, one for the best, healthiest bunches and then another. Of course, we meticulously sorted all the fruit as we always do.” Those readers who are always looking for news concerning the next vintage will be interested to hear the following. Unlike almost all his colleagues who said that 2002 was going to be a spectacular vintage, de Villaine informed me that it would “another irregular year.”

Relatively pale ruby. Looks quite pale and evolved – much lighter than most Tâches. Firm. Heady perfume! Delicate, not as rich and deep as many other vintages. Firm finish. Very fresh. But quite tough and grainy on the end. Not one of the greatest Tâches. Not voluptuous but very fresh and lively and wonderfully long. Just a bit hard work at the moment. (JR)
