Why shop with us?
Château d’Issan 2020 is a graceful Margaux Grand Cru Classé that captures the elegance and perfume of Bordeaux’s Left Bank. Sourced from one of the appellation’s historic estates, it combines refined structure with the silky charm that makes Margaux so sought after.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby color with excellent brightness. The nose leans toward classic Margaux character: blackcurrant, ripe plum, violets, cedar, and subtle spice, with a hint of graphite and floral lift.
On the palate, the wine is usually polished and precise, balancing ripe dark fruit with fine tannins and fresh acidity. The texture is supple yet persistent, suggesting very good aging potential, with 10–20 years or more depending on storage and provenance.
Food & Serving
Excellent with roast lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, game birds, and mushroom-based dishes. Serve at 16–18°C, and decant for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine’s aromatic layers and tannins to open.
Producer
Château d’Issan is a historic estate in Margaux with roots stretching back many centuries, and it was classified as a Third Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. The château is widely respected for producing wines that emphasize fragrance, finesse, and the classic elegance associated with top Margaux.
