Displaying a deep plumy, ruby colour, the nose here exhibits a beautiful bouquet of flowers, liquorice, sweet currants and plums. There is lovely purity here, and mouth-watering acidity. With precise character and stunning concentration, the impressive finish lasts and lasts. What a refreshing finish. Really delicious, this is one of the best wines from Margaux in 2015, where quality across the board was high. We have no hesitation in recommending Ch. d'Issan this year. A beautifully harmonious wine, it could be the best Ch. d'Issan we have ever tasted en primeur.

Château d'Issan

The present-day chateau (surrounded by a moat) was constructed in the 17th Century; like so many Bordeaux estates it was essentially in ruins after the First World War. Acquired by the Cruse winemaking family in the 1950's the vineyards were extensively replanted and the estate restored to its former glory. It was declared a Third Growth Grand Cru in the 1855 Bordeaux classification.
