Château l'Arrosée--Vintage 1986
Saint-Emilion, grand cru classé
In original wooden case
"Beginning to shed its tannin, it reveals an intriguing dusty herb, black cherry, kirsch, and mineral-scented nose, with subtle vanillin from new oak in the background. There are medium-bodied, concentrated flavors with some firm tannin, but by and large this is a very accessible wine. It remains youthful, with only a hint of amber at the edge of its deep ruby/purple color. This will undoubtedly be one of L'Arrosee's longest lived wines since their 1961. Anticipated maturity: now-2012. Last tasted 12/97" Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition (1998)
