The Wine Palate om:
Chateau d' Issan 3eme Grand Cru
Expressive, Bold, Black Fruit, Minty, Dark Chocolate, Violets, Full bodied, Refreshing Acidity, Subtle Oak, Silky Texture, High Tannin, Needs Time. A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc, 2% Malbec, and 1% Petit Verdot, aged in 50% new oak, d’Issan 2022 has a deep garnet-purple color. It opens with a gorgeous perfume of crème de cassis, black raspberries, and violets, giving way to hints of mint tea, dark chocolate, and underbrush. Full-bodied, the palate is wonderfully silky with bags of juicy red and black fruit flavors and a lively backbone, finishing long and fragrant. This is what Margaux is all about!
