Chateau d'Issan Blason d'Issan 2016 shows vibrant red and black berry fruit layered with floral lift and a hint of cool mint, all wrapped in sleek, fine-grained tannins. Medium to full in body yet graceful, it glides into a long, fresh finish that clearly reflects its Margaux origins and the ripe, generous character of the vintage.

Blason d’Issan is the second wine of Château d’Issan, a 3rd Growth estate in Margaux, produced mainly from younger Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vines on gravel-over-clay soils. Created in 1995, it is crafted and barrel-aged in the same cellars as the grand vin but is styled for earlier drinking, showing supple tannins, round, juicy fruit and the floral elegance typical of Margaux while echoing the character of the château’s flagship wine.
