Cabernet Sauvignon 1986 Le Bonheur

4/95. Bought locally for $28.
This wine is from the Stellenboch area near Capetown.
Good dark color, though not absolutely clear.
Pleasant - though not very strong - black berries fruit on the nose, mingled with the right amount of wood.
Smooth, silky taste, maybe a bit 'tired' though.
Good balance, in spite lacking a bit in acidity.
A good wine that may be just a bit beyond its peak.
MARK: 15/20.aaaaaaaaBUY MORE? No.
