In 2020, Château d’Issan delivers a deeply scented Margaux of dark berries, cassis and violet lifted by fine herbs and gentle spice, all wrapped in velvety but purposeful tannins. The palate is seamless yet energetic, with ripe blackcurrant and blackberry, hints of cocoa and tobacco, and a long, cool, focused finish that shows both charm and serious aging potential.

Château d’Issan is the historic grand vin of this Third Growth Margaux estate, drawn from the old vines within the walled “enclos” on deep gravel over clay that yields particularly elegant, long-lived Cabernet Sauvignon–Merlot blends. Typically aged 16–18 months in about 50% new French oak, it is known for its supple, refined tannins, floral Margaux perfume, and a balance of ripeness and freshness that allows it to age gracefully for decades.
