Beringer Vineyards - Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve 1986 (750ml) Coonawarra for a period of aboutProfessional Review 90 points Robert Parker The fully mature, open knit 1986 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve is totally delicious. The color is dark garnet with some amber at the edge. The big, sweet, licorice, earthy, jammy, black fruit scented nose is followed by a full bodied, sweet, expansive, chewy wine with no hard edges. The acidity and tannin are both well integrated in this plump, sumptuous Cabernet Sauvignon. (RP, 08 1996)
