La Tâche 1999 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (#01868,#03774,#03772, different importers, 1 lightly stained label, 1 very slightly protruded cork) 3 bottles "Everything that I saw from cask made it into bottle intact and words remain inadequate to describe just how good this wine is. Classic La Tâche in every respect with its incredibly pure, marvelously intense oriental spice box nose, flavors of hoisin and pure pinot extract of indescribable complexity and length. The big tannins are completely wrapped in velvet and the finish simply does not quit. Destined to become one of the all time great vintages of La Tâche." (99pts AM) 從我所見，由橡木時期至一瓶酒的完成，實在難以用文字形容這葡萄酒有多好。經典的 La Tâche 在各方面都是無比的純淨，加上強烈東方香料的香氣，還有海鮮醬和純正黑比諾葡萄精華所帶出難以形容的複雜感和收結。圓潤的單寧完全包裹在柔軟絲絨的質感之中，餘韻久久不散。這葡萄酒注定要成為La Tâche 最經典的年份之一。（「Burghound.com」Allen Meadows評分：99）
