1975 was one of the worst Burgundy vintages. This La Tache, light, aromatically brilliant, balanced with a weak mid palate and a non existent finish was still a good lunch wine. Slow oxed for 30 minutes prior to drinking — 20 days ago
Needs plenty of air. Tight for the first hour or so. Fleshed out beautifully in the next hour. Lots of dark fruits. Bold wine with lots of life left. — 4 days ago
Fading at the edges. Beautiful soft dried herbs, wild strawberry, tang. Translucent and precise on the palate. Complex and delicious and long mature note and hauntingly pretty — 5 days ago
Wow. Just amazing nose- roses, plum, red flowers, lifted cherry. Heartbreakingly beautiful and lifted. The palate is still pure and intense. Defined with incredible limpid definition… violets and length. Wonderful — 5 days ago

Dark ruby in color with a brick rim.
Light on the nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red fruits with earth, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, mushrooms, herbs and black pepper.
Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tart cranberries.
This 12 year old Pinot Noir from Burgundy is elegant and tangy.
Earthy, and better after 90 minutes of airtime.
Wine Advocate 92 points.
Starting to show some age, and doesn't feel young, but I feel it needs more time in the bottle. Would be nice to revisit it in 7 years.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
12.5% alcohol by volume.
