Do you know this cuvée? 

Cuvée Romanée-Conti La Tâche is widely regarded as one of the world's most prestigious and sought-after wines. It is produced by the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti in Burgundy, France, and is renowned for its excellence and rarity.

Characteristics of the cuvée :

Grand Cru but also monopoly of the Domaine de La Romanée-Conti, it is the other most sought-after red wine of the domaine (and probably of all Burgundy) with the "Romanée-Conti".

The grapes are picked when perfectly ripe, by hand. The vinification is traditional, with long maturation in barrels of different ages, so that the wood does not overpower the primary expression of the terroir. La Tâche du Domaine de La Romanée-Conti is certified organic.

The average annual production is 20,000 bottles, on a surface of 6.06 ha. For this vintage, the production was 11 929 bottles.

FIND OUT MORE:

It is a red wine from the Pinot Noir grape variety, and is renowned for its complex character, concentration and ageing potential. The grapes used to produce this wine come from a single vineyard, also called La Tâche, which is located near Vosne-Romanée in Burgundy. Domaine de la Romanée-Conti owns a small parcel of vines in this vineyard, and only a few thousand bottles of La Tâche are produced each year, making it an extremely rare wine.

SERVICE

In terms of serving and tasting, we recommend serving La Tâche at a temperature slightly cooler than room temperature, generally between 15 and 18 degrees Celsius. It's best to decant the wine for an hour or two before tasting, as this allows the aromas and flavors to develop fully.

TASTING ADVICE:

On tasting, you can expect intense aromas of ripe red fruit, cherry, licorice, spice and undergrowth. On the palate, La Tâche offers a silky texture, elegant structure, fine tannins and a long finish. It is often described as powerful, complex and profound.
