Chateau D'issan Margaux 2014 750ml

The palate reveals a medium body with prominent herbal notes at the outset, seamlessly balanced by a generous layer of ripe fruit flavours. The peppery nuances of the Cabernet Sauvignon guide a well-structured and notably masculine finish, which is distinctive for a Margaux wine. This 2014 vintage of Château d’Issan is beginning to manifest the elegance and complexity that connoisseurs expect, indicating potential for higher acclaim as it continues to mature. Recognized as a prestigious Third Growth in the 1855 Imperial Classification, Château d’Issan is meticulously produced from old vines situated within its historic Margaux estate.

The vineyard's unique terroir, characterized by a gravelly surface atop a clay subsoil, facilitates optimal ripening conditions for its key varietals, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. This combination contributes to the wine’s characteristic aromatic depth and refined structure. Château d’Issan distinctly captures Margaux’s signature fragrance while exhibiting exceptional suppleness, finesse, and a remarkable capacity for long-term aging. The wine undergoes maturation for 16 to 18 months in oak barrels, half of which are new, imparting subtle complexity and balance. Annual production is limited to roughly 100,000 bottles, ensuring attention to quality and consistency with each vintage. This Margaux offers a sophisticated tasting experience that rewards patience and appreciation for the region’s terroir-driven expression.
