1986 Beaulieu Vineyards, Cabernet Sauvignon, Georges De Latour, Private Reserve

Medium dark, brownish around the edge. Red cherry and violet aromas on the nose. Red cherry and dill flavors on the fruit, high acid, soft tannins, and a long finish. This bottle is much better then the previous bottle of this wine I had, but it seems to be a little past its prime. People who like young cabernets will probably not like this wine. My rating 87.
