DRC La Tâche 1998
The 1998 vintage in Burgundy produced structured, acidic, and tightly wound wines.
Although some DRC bottlings from this vintage can present a slightly cloudy clarity, it does not hinder the purity of the wine.
The 1998 La Tâche is surprisingly approachable now but possesses excellent remaining development potential.
The palate is muscular, expansive, and silky, offering dense fruit underpinned by firm tannins, crisp acidity, and a distinct mineral thread.
This mature Pinot Noir pairs excellently with rich, earthy, and savoury dishes, such as herb-crusted lamb or braised game; roast duck with a berry reduction; truffle-infused dishes; or aged Comté cheese.
In total, DRC crafted 16,921 bottles of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche 1998.
Would you like to compare this vintage to another great year for La Tâche, such as 1971 or 1978?
Are you, on the other hand, looking to purchase a bottle for a specific occasion, or are you, alternatively, researching the tasting history of this particular vintage?
Furthermore, older bottles often show signs of age, such as slightly damaged capsules and/or scuffed or damp-stained labels.
However, this is perfectly normal and does not mean that the wine is faulty or damaged, nor that the bottle is a counterfeit or fake.
Ultimately, when you buy from a reputable specialist merchant like Arden Fine Wines, you guarantee the best quality.
