Tasting Note

It has a bright vivid bouquet with perfumed dark cherry and blueberry scents, a hint of pencil lead in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with a mineral-driven opening. Harmonious in the mouth and disarmingly silky in texture do not let its second wine status get in the way of noticing the structure towards the finish. This is a very well-crafted Blason d’Issan.

Product Notes

Chateau d'Issan Blason d'Issan Margaux is a beautiful red wine hailing from the Margaux appellation of Bordeaux. This blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot grapes is carefully crafted to produce a lush, full-bodied wine with a complex nose of red fruit, floral hints, and delicate oak notes. On the palate, the wine is rich and velvety, delivering flavors of black currant, cherry and sweet spice with a smooth finish. The tannins are structured and firm, adding depth and complexity to the wine. This wine pairs perfectly with red meats, game and strong cheeses and is an excellent choice to celebrate special occasions.

About the Winery

Chateau d'Issan

Chateau d’Issan has changed hands over generations, contributing to the reputation of the estate and the castle. During the twelfth century, it was known as La Mothe-Cantenac. The estate changed hands over the years, ending in the hands of the ‘Essenault family in 1575, whose successive generations gave the estate its present name. The estate was owned by the Foix de Candale, who abandoned it after the Revolution. In 1824, the estate was controlled by Jean-Baptiste Duluc, who improved the estate vineyards before the Blanchy family took over. In 1866, Gustave Roy owned the estate, built the first gravity-fed cellars, and replanted the phylloxera-affected vineyards.
