Tasting notes
James Suckling · James Suckling · 94-95
This is solid and muscular Issan with round and powerful tannins. Full and long. Impressively structured.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW · Wine Advocate · 93
A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot aged in 50% new and 50% one-year-old barrels for 18 months, the deep garnet-purple colored 2015 D'Issan simply sings with a beautiful perfume of wilted flowers, rose hip tea and mincemeat with a core of cherry preserves and blackberry tart plus a hint of underbrush. Medium-bodied, fine, fresh and elegant, it's very soft and silky in the mouth with a long finish.
Steven Spurrier · Decanter · 93
A 65% Cabernet, 35% Merlot blend from old vines, this epitomises the charm of Margaux with lightly explosive fruit and integrated tannins to give perfect balance.
