1986 Chateau Meyney, Saint-Estephe, Bottle (750ml) [top shoulder]

Meyney is a deep, dark garnet/purple-colored wine with a moderately intense fragrance of minerals, licorice, smoke, roasted herbs, and sweet black currant fruit. On the palate, the wine still has some tannin to shed, but its expansive, savory style suggests it is already accessible. With outstanding extract and layers of fruit, this wine is a candidate for another 10-15 years of cellaring - at a minimum. (RP)" (1997)
