Product Description:
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche Grand Cru 2022 is a profoundly expressive Pinot Noir from the Côte de Nuits, grown exclusively in the Domaine’s monopole vineyard in Vosne-Romanée. The 2022 vintage presented climatic extremes, yet careful viticulture and low yields of around 37.6 hl/ha produced grapes of remarkable concentration and balance. Vinified with traditional Burgundian precision and matured in selected French oak, the wine delivers density and richness while retaining the elegance and transparency typical of DRC. Muscular yet graceful, it shows a sculptural restraint, underpinned by mineral complexity, subtle spice, and a poised acidity that promises decades of evolution.

Harvested by hand in early September, the fruit was sorted meticulously to ensure only the finest berries were used. The result is a wine of linear tension and purity, with flavors of red and black fruit, forest floor, and delicate herbal notes coiling through a refined structure. La Tâche 2022 is built to reward patience, revealing its full depth and harmony over extended cellaring.
Even at this early stage, the wine demonstrates a rare balance between power and finesse. The aromatics and palate combine with a precise frame and persistent minerality, offering an experience that is at once immediate in its vibrancy and promising in its long-term potential. It pairs beautifully with delicate game, roasted duck, or refined mushroom-based dishes that mirror its layered complexity.

Medium-bodied with fine, chiselled tannins and vibrant acidity, evolving through red and black fruit, Earl Grey tea, and forest floor notes.

FINISH

Lingering black tea, sea salt and refined oak with persistent herbal echoes and mineral tension.

Reviews & Accolades
“Hides its secrets well … a blend of red and black fruit, Earl Grey, undergrowth, and a subtle herbal patina. Linear structure, sapidity and ineffable precision.” — Neal Martin, Vinous, 99 points

“Velvety blackberry and plum fruit, firm yet fine-grained tannins, and interminable length, with density and compactness.” — Charles Curtis MW, Decanter, 99 points

“Full-bodied, rich and layered with lively acids and sweet, powdery tannins, concluding in a long, gently oak-inflected finish.” — William Kelley, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, 98 points

“Aromatics quite promising; palate a little strict with notes of white pepper, sage, mint, blood orange and star anise. Enigmatic at this stage.” — Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 97 points
