Details
Beaulieu Vineyards "Private Reserve" Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1951
.Napa Valley.
.Levels: one bottom neck, two top, one upper shoulder. Lightly soiled labels, one dampstained label.
."Most recently: fabulous appearance, great depth and richness; low-keyed, massive and concentrated, the bouquet clasped tight, slow to emerge, walnuts, almost smoky, a sort of sooty richness; the sweetness of ripe grapes and maximum alcoholic content, huge, fleshy, velvety, perfect acidity... A sort of amalgam of '55 Latour and '59 Cheval Blanc."GVWB
