Beychevelle Magnum 1986
1500 ml Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot Bordeaux, France 1986
Beychevelle Magnum 1986 is a dry, very full-bodied red from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot (Saint-Julien, France), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are firm and acidity fresh; oak influence is noticeable. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 40-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened.
