Château d’Issan Margaux 1855 3ième Cru 2019
The bigger, more structured Margaux have closed down over ageing, as is the case here with Issan – less exuberant than during En Primeur, but showing concentration, controlled power and beautiful cassis and bilberry fruits. Skilful and deft weaving together of tannins and fresh acidities to cradle the fruit, with a voluptuous creamy mid palate as it opens. Impressive depths, decades of life ahead. 50% new oak, 45% of overall production. Harvest September 25 to October 11.
