The disparity between my score in barrel last year and from bottle this year is an illustration of the vagaries of barrel tasting, as the 2021 La Tâche Grand Cru has benefited immeasurably from a second winter of élevage. If the Saint-Vivant is the cousin of the Romanée-Conti, La Tâche this year is the big brother of the Richebourg, unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with Asian spices, rose petals and coniferous forest and framed by a discreet patina of new oak. Full-bodied, layered and muscular, with a broad, textural attack and an ample core of fruit that conceals a serious chassis of tannin, it's long, resonant and intensely perfumed.

Co-director Perrine Fenal believes this wine stands out because of its sense of serenity and accomplishment, compared with Corton, where you sense the wine has suffered, even though both vineyards suffered from the frost. Harvested 24, 25, 27 September. 50-year-old vines, yield 8.8 hl/ha. Total production 579 cases. Bottled 12 April 2023.
Mid ruby. Complex fruit aroma of both red and black fruits. Vibrant, open, with a joyful spring in its step. Firm, darker fruited and more savoury on the palate, not as joyous as the aroma but still with a deep energy and harmony. Deliciously dry on the finish with a slight woody note – more stems than oak – increasing the freshness, though there is none of the leafiness of the Richebourg here. Finest, polished tannins that are so discreet I almost forgot to mention them. Extreme purity and transparency. (JH)

An effortless deep crimson red. The bouquet has a sense of completeness, a poise ahead of the other wines. One needs to dig deep for the detail. Slowly, slowly, out it comes. Sometimes the rose petals lead with La Tâche but here it seems to be something of everything. Marvellous tension. On the palate, the saline aspect of whole bunches shows, along with a little blood orange. The red fruit then sweeps back to complete a gracious finish. This is usually the most tannic of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti wines, but here they are well covered by the fruit, and the flower, and the peppers and spices. I think we will be able to use the ethereal word. Now the roses are singing at the back of the palate.
