Reddish orange purple. Opaque and dark. Nose that immediately says old La La. Really rich fruit and structure in the mouth. Really long finish. Guesses were around the 82/83 Mouline or Turque area but no, it was old Hermitage. This was as good as my experiences with the 78 version of this wine. Stood out on a night of great wines. — 9 years ago

No Limit Syrah - next to an older Guigal La Mouline. For a third of the price, this was much more of the bargain. Fruit, density, complexity and structure to boot. Would love to see this in 10 or 15 years, if I can hold out that long. — 12 years ago

1980 La Landonne and 1980 La Mouline. What a pair! — 11 years ago
Overall enjoyed but just a bit more on the masculine side than the La Mouline. — 9 years ago
This was the groups WOTN against some pretty stiff competition. 59 Leroy GE, 82 LMHB, 82 Pichon Lalande & 80 La Mouline.
This is a very underrated vintage for LaTache as it is still showing tight and firm when 1st opened but really starts opening up after 30 min of air. Very aromatic and complex with red fruits, Asian spice, dried rose petal, game bird displaying power with elegance and finesse. Always a treat to drink a fully mature LaTache that is just reaching its peak drinking window. — 10 years ago
99 points? The flaw in the rating system. If you compare it to other ampuis, sure. Compared to La mouline 2010 this is a 91-93 pt. cote rotie. Phenomenal. — 11 years ago

Spot on young-ish Moulis, fruity with just enough tannins — 8 years ago
