| Over het wijnhuis | Het verhaal van Château d'Issan kan niet verteld worden zonder te melden dat hier de eerste wijntransactie in de geschiedenis van Bordeaux plaatsvond. Het gaat om een transactie tussen de Britse kroon van Hendrik III en de Seigneuries de Cantenac (waarvan een deel d’Issan zou worden). Het landgoed is een stap terug in de tijd met zijn torentjes, kantelen en gracht. De geschiedenis druipt er vanaf. |

| Awards | "A very strong effort for this estate, the 2020 D'Issan wafts from the glass with aromas of dark berries and cassis mingled with notions of violets and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and vibrant, with good depth at the core, refined tannins and a penetrating finish, it's an elegant, perfumed Margaux that's built to age with grace." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Gorgeous aromas of dried flowers, currants, bark, and forest floor. Lead pencil, too. Tobacco. Full-bodied yet racy and polished with fine and silky tannins that run the length of the wine. Crunchy and fresh at the end. Give this five or six years to come together. Supple yet structured. It builds at the finish. Try after 2028." - James Suckling "Dark fruit with a savoury edge on the nose. Altogether quite vinous and complex. Medium-bodied but lively and persistent with layered fruit and tight but refined tannins. Lovely flow and drive. Seems likely to develop further in the bottle." - Jancis Robinson "The 2020 d'Issan is the first vintage that incorporates Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec to complement the traditional Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in the blend. Pretty floral and savory accents complement a core of ripe red/purplish berry fruit. Medium in body and vibrant, with superb persistence, Issan is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. The purity of the flavors is striking. Harvest took place over three weeks between September 17 through October 2, which is only about a week earlier than normal, so not that displaced relative to what was the norm in much of Bordeaux. Tasted three times." - Vinous "Wonderfully intense on the nose, so ripe and concentrated with some toasted oak aromas. Supple and vibrant on the palate, the fruit is clean and crisp with tannins that are fine but firm, just giving the expression some tension and linearity. Cinnamon and clove edge the bright blackcurrant and black cherry fruit with lovely acidity. This is plush, and firm at the same time, clean and clear, fragrant and ripe. Lots going on here with bitter dark chocolate too. It’s all happening. Needs time to relax but this is wonderfully nuanced and really quite captivating. Grippy and refreshing, leaves a lingering impression." - Decanter |
