2023 Château d'Issan, Margaux, Bordeaux

Description

Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon; 25% Merlot; 2.5% Cabernet Franc; 2.5% Petit Verdot.

Emmanuel Cruse explained that the yield is lower this year, partly due to mildew pressure but also drought. Although the Margaux commune received more rain than its northern neighbours, the sandier soils retained it poorly. Regardless, this remains a most attractive and appealing wine. Charming red and dark fruit aromas are wrapped by very smooth tannins. There is a little more Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend this year, giving the wine more linearity. This is a wine likely to impress more in the coming months.

Drink 2029 - 2045

About this wine

Margaux

Margaux

If Pauillac is the bastion of ‘traditional’ Red Bordeaux, Margaux represents its other facet in producing wines that are some of the region’s most sensual and alluring. The largest commune in the Médoc, it encompasses the communes of Cantenac, Soussans, Arsac and Labaude, in addition to the village of Margaux itself. Its finest examples are paragons of refinement and subtlety which have few parallels in Bordeaux.
