Description
The 2012 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche Monopole Grand Cru is one of the most prestigious and coveted wines in the world. La Tâche is a monopole, meaning the vineyard is wholly owned by the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC), and it is considered one of the crown jewels of Burgundy. La Tâche is a grand cru vineyard in the Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, located in the commune of Vosne-Romanée and this is of course a 100% Pinot Noir, the signature grape of the region.
2012 was a challenging but very good vintage in Burgundy. The season was marked by difficult weather conditions: Hail, frost, and disease pressure severely limited yields. Due to these challenges, yields in 2012 were exceptionally low, resulting in a very concentrated and powerful wine. The grapes that were harvested were of high quality with a perfect balance between sugar and acidity. The scarcity and excellent quality make 2012 unique and highly sought after.
Tasting notes:
- Colour : Deep ruby red with beautiful clarity.
- Nose : Aromas of ripe red berries such as cherries and raspberries, complemented by notes of herbs, flowers (violets and roses), truffle and subtle mineral accents.
- Taste : Complex and layered with a perfect balance of ripe fruit, fresh acidity and silky tannins. The wine has a remarkable depth and length, with an almost ethereal texture.
- Finish : Exceptionally long and refined, with mineral and earthy notes beautifully interwoven with the fruit.
Storage potential:
This wine has enormous aging potential. Although it can be impressive when young, it will continue to develop in the bottle over the next 20 to 30 years (or more), developing more secondary and tertiary aromas such as earthy and smoky notes.
About La Tâche
La Tâche, located in Vosne-Romanée, is a cru particularly appreciated by professionals and wine lovers for its consistency, continuity and compactness. This vineyard, which extends in the heights and depths of the Côte de Nuits, has a rich diversity of soil types. This may explain the complexity and power of its wine. La Tâche is one of the two Monopole of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. The vineyard has had various owners over the years, including illustrious names such as Jean-Baptiste Le Goux de la Berchère in the 16th century and later the Liger-Belair family. Due to various circumstances, it was sold in 1933 to the owners of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti.
A major event in the history of the vineyard was the merger of La Tâche and the neighbouring Les Gaudichots, which was legally authorised by a court ruling in 1932. The vineyard is located between 250 and 300 metres above sea level and has a variety of soil types, varying in depth and composition. To combat erosion, measures have been taken, such as the construction of a concrete basin in 1985.

The 2012 La Tâche was picked September 25 and 27 at 21 hectoliters per hectare. It is blessed with one of those aromatic profiles that stops you in your tracks, in some ways stops time itself. There is an intensity and drive here, a mixture of red and black fruit, autumn leaves and wet limestone and later, roof tiles on a hot July afternoon. The palate is medium-bodied and nigh perfectly balanced. The tannins are filigree, the fruit extremely pure with an intense mineralité on the finish. There is an effortless quality about this La Tâche and yet is just clams up on the finish, does not quite deliver that knockout blow that so many other vintages have given. Perhaps it is saving it for later? Readers should note that there is just 1,113 cases produced rather than the usual 1,870.

From: Grand Cru Culinary Wine Festival 2015 (Mar 2016)
A wine of almost raw, animal power, the 2012 La Tâche possesses stunning depth and intensity. Savory, floral and red citrus notes are pushed forward in an unusually virile, imposing La Tâche. Readers will have to be patient here, which will not surprise anyone familiar with the vintage. Still, I am taken aback by the wine’s embryonic youthfulness.

I was thrilled to be a part of the 11th Grand Cru Culinary Wine Festival, held this past fall in Toronto. The weekend long program of seminars, tastings and dinners hosted by an incredible collection of luminaries from the worlds of wine and food helped raise $5.5m for the McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, one of the world’s leading research centers focused on stem cell research. These two smaller events within Grand Cru showcased the wines of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and brought in donations of $1m.

From: The 2013 & 2012 Red Burgundies (Apr 2015)
There isn't much to say about the 2012 La Tâche because it is nearly as complete as a young wine can possibly be. All the elements fall into place effortlessly. In 2012 it is the wine's extraordinary textural finesse and huge towering structure that stand out. The classic La Tâche floral and savory notes are all amped up by the richness and overall intensity of the year.
- By Antonio Galloni on November 2014
Aubert de Villaine compared the domaine's 2012s to the 1991s, when I tasted the finished wines with him at the estate in November 2014. To be sure, though, the 2012s have come a long way since they were bottled. A year ago, the wines showed a palpable sense of raw power from tiny yields and late malos. Today, the wines are much more polished. At this stage, the 2012s can be divided into two groups; wines that are intensely tannic (Corton, Grands-Échézeaux, Romanée St.-Vivant and Romanée-Conti), and others where the concentration of fruit stands out above all else (Échézeaux, Richebourg and, to a lesser extent, La Tâche).

From: The 2012 Red Burgundies from Bottle (Mar 2015)
Bright, dark red. Spellbinding perfume combines red berries, cherry, Oriental spices, rose petal, licorice, pepper and minerals. Perfectly balanced from the outset, showing outstanding clarity and lift, not to mention superb sappy depth, to its multifaceted red fruit, mineral, spice and floral flavors. The combination of sweetness and grip is extraordinary, as is the wine's expanding, mounting aftertaste. Will this beauty ever go into a truly sullen stage? Probably.
- By Stephen Tanzer on November 2014
I tasted with Cellarmaster Bernard Noblet in November, so I was not able to ask Aubert de Villaine if he still prefers the estate's 2012s to its 2010s. In November of 2013, de Villaine ventured the opinion that the '12s have "more energy and riper tannins" than the earlier year. Part of that energy no doubt owes to his decision to vinify with 60% to 80% whole clusters in 2012, which helps to counter the vintage's impression of slightly elevated pHs, which Noblet told me are in the 3.6 to 3.65 range. These stunning wines impress more for their class and refinement than for sheer weight on the palate.

From: 2012 Red Burgundies (Jan 2014)
Bright dark red. Musky strawberry, raspberry, wild spices and minerals on the pure but rather subdued nose; less showy today than the RSV or Richebourg. The palate offers outstanding imploded intensity and lift to the almost liqueur-like red berry and spice flavors. Wonderfully full without being the least bit heavy. The sugar/acid balance here is truly exhilarating. Great expanding aftertaste shows a captivating candied quality and terrific lift and cut.
- By Stephen Tanzer on January 2014
Aubert de Villaine is always reticent about his new vintages before they are bottled, and his in-depth report on the growing season and harvest of 2012 goes into great detail on the challenges of the year. In the end, though, the crop was extremely small and concentrated (with an average yield in pinot noir of about 20 hectoliters per hectare) and the fruit was fully ripe and healthy. The main task at harvest was to leave behind the berries that were burned during a few scorching days at the end of June. Like many of his colleagues on the Cote de Nuits, de Villaine pointed out that without the natural crop thinning brought by mildew attacks and heat waves, the fruit would never have reached such a level of maturity and quality.The fermentations took a good six or seven days to start and it was even necessary to heat the grapes at the end of the harvest. DRC vinified with 60% to 70% whole clusters, with de Villaine pointing out that it's necessary to be careful with the use of stems in years with a lot of millerandage, "which means every vintage here since 2010." Today de Villaine compares the estate's 2011s to its 2009s in their finesse, charm and hedonistic appeal. The 2012s are more serious wines; as of November, he believed that they have more energy and riper tannins than the 2010s, and he ranks 2012 above 2010. As you will see from my tasting notes, 2012 is indeed an extraordinary vintage for this great estate. (Aubert de Villaine was not ready to present the Corton, as it had just been racked.)

Wijnhuis
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (afgekort DRC) is een van de meest legendarische wijnhuizen ter wereld en wordt beschouwd als het toppunt van Bourgondische wijnbouw. Het domein heeft een rijke historie die honderden jaren teruggaat en een nauwe band met de tradities en terroirs van de Bourgogne.
Historische achtergrond:
Vroege oorsprong: De wijngaarden van Romanée-Conti worden al sinds de middeleeuwen gecultiveerd. Ze waren oorspronkelijk in bezit van kloosterorden, die in die tijd veel wijngaarden in de Bourgogne beheerden.
18e eeuw: De wijngaard Romanée (nu Romanée-Conti) kwam in 1760 in handen van de prins van Conti, Louis François de Bourbon, een neef van Lodewijk XV. Hij voegde zijn naam aan de wijngaard toe, waardoor deze "La Romanée-Conti" werd genoemd. De prins gebruikte de wijn uitsluitend voor zijn eigen hof en gasten, wat bijdroeg aan de exclusieve reputatie.
Franse Revolutie: Tijdens de Franse Revolutie werden de eigendommen van de adel onteigend, waaronder Romanée-Conti. Het werd verkocht als nationaal bezit.
Moderne geschiedenis: In 1869 werd het domein gekocht door de familie de Villaine. Samen met de familie Leroy is deze familie tot op heden eigenaar van Domaine de la Romanée-Conti.
Wijngaarden en terroirs:
Locaties: DRC beheert enkele van de meest prestigieuze grand cru-wijngaarden in de Bourgogne, waaronder:Romanée-Conti (monopole)
- La Tâche (monopole)
- Richebourg
- Romanée-Saint-Vivant
- Grands Échézeaux
- Échézeaux
- Corton (vanaf 2009)
- Montrachet (voor de witte wijn)
Terroir:
De wijngaarden liggen in Vosne-Romanée en hebben een unieke combinatie van kalkrijke bodems, een mild klimaat en perfecte ligging, wat resulteert in wijnen met uitzonderlijke finesse en complexiteit.
Filosofie en wijnbouw:
Handmatige oogst: Elke druif wordt met de hand geplukt om de kwaliteit te waarborgen.
Biodynamische wijnbouw: Sinds de jaren 1980 heeft DRC biodynamische methoden geïntroduceerd om de natuurlijke balans van de wijngaarden te behouden.
Vinificatie: DRC combineert traditionele Bourgondische technieken met moderne innovaties. De wijnen worden opgevoed in nieuwe eikenhouten vaten en rijpen lang voordat ze worden vrijgegeven.
Exclusiviteit en reputatie:
Beperkte productie: De totale jaarlijkse productie van DRC is extreem laag, wat de wijnen zeldzaam en gewild maakt.
Kwaliteit boven kwantiteit: Elk detail in de productie, van de wijngaard tot de fles, wordt met de grootste zorg uitgevoerd.
Invloedrijkheid: DRC is de standaard waaraan andere Bourgondische en zelfs internationale wijnen worden afgemeten. De naam is synoniem met luxe en perfectie.
Invloed op de wijnwereld:
Begeerlijkheid: DRC-wijnen worden op veilingen verkocht voor recordprijzen en zijn een must-have voor verzamelaars.
Cultureel icoon: Door de eeuwen heen is DRC een symbool geworden van elegantie en verfijning in de wijnwereld.
