A second wine from Margaux signed by Château d’Issan
The property
The Château d’Issan is a Bordeaux cru renowned since the 12th century. It is part of history as one of those exceptional crus served at the table of kings and emperors throughout time. The Blason d’Issan, Second Wine of Château d’Issan, was created in 1995.
The vineyard
The 59-hectare vineyard extends over three appellations. The majority is cultivated on the gravelly hills and alluvial hills of Margaux. The youngest vines grown on the Margaux terroir are the origin of Blason d’Issan.
The vintage
The 2019 vintage is a great year for Château d’Issan. Good conditions follow one another from the mild winter to the hot summer, through a favorable spring. The intermittent rains in September and the cool nights give vitality to the vines in the final stretch before the harvest. The berries then reach perfect maturity and are well concentrated, thus delivering precise and balanced tannins.
Vinification and aging
Harvest from September 25 to October 11. Parcel vinification. Thermo-regulated stainless steel tanks. Gentle extraction. Blend in mid-January.
Blend
The Blason d'Issan 2019 is the result of a blend of cabernet sauvignon (40%) and merlot (60%).
