2022 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti, La Tache Grand Cru 1x750ml

Vinous 97

The 2022 La Tache Grand Cru is quite promising in its aromatics but less welcoming on the palate, where it feels a touch strict today. White pepper, sage, mint, blood orange and star anise are nicely lifted. For now, the 2022 La Tache is somewhat of an enigma. Perhaps I caught it at a slightly awkward moment in time. Or perhaps, some of the other wines in the range just shine brighter in 2022. We shall see. [Antonio Galloni, 25/03/2025]
