The Story

Well-cared for vines, strictly controlled yields and as late as possible harvest produces an aromatic and opulent wine. Deeply coloured, La Tâche develops a palate of extraordinary aromas of dark fruits, truffle and spices.

Rich and concentrated, its bouquet releases infinite tones that melt in the mouth to form a lovely ensemble – always exceptional, even in the difficult vintages. Hence in 1950 and 1951, it was the only wine in the domain...

2000 Harvest

It is once again a year with "ups and downs" and difficult climatic conditions, even abnormal sometimes, that the vignerons and their vineyards had to face :

- A mild end of winter ; a beautiful and early bunch setting.
- A summery June, very like August, resulting in a rapid and complete flowering, without coulure. The harvest promised to be large, especially in the younger vines (the old vines - which represent the great...

Written Notes

We moved to Burgundy territory in deep ocean fashion, with a sweet, honeyed and decadent Pinot. It had beautiful red rose and red fruit aromas. To The Victor agreed, citing ‘strawberries.’ Others admired its ‘acidity, spice and oak.’ One guest guessed ‘1980s Echezeaux,’ but it was 2000 DRC La Tache. Out of magnum. Again. I gotta admit, the 2000 LT mag was so perfect, so now. The Sifu found it ‘so a (ah) point (pwahn).’ That’s French for ‘on point’ lol. Don’t be such a connard (95M).

The La Tâche 2000 has never been reviewed by The Wine Advocate. Despite the challenges of this modest Burgundy season, it should not be overlooked. It clearly has a more mature appearance than the 1999 with wide bricking on the rim. The aromatics are also more advanced with bacon fat and baking powder infusing the red and black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, tart red cherries on the entry and then moving confidently toward secondary notes on the finish–cola, brown spices and sage. There is a lovely purity to this La Tâche that is probably reaching its peak now, but should plateau for 10-15 years.
