Blason d’Issan is the second label wine of Chateau d’Issan, a legendary Grand Cru Bordeaux estate in Margaux, first classified in 1855.  A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, this wine was first introduced nearly 20 years ago, in 1995. The grapes are hand-harvested from the estate’s youngest vines to ensure vitality and freshness, allowing the complex terroir or Margaux to shine through with every sip. Effortless, elegant, and yet structured, the wine features notes of ripe raspberry, cherry, blackcurrant, graphite, all backed silky tannins and balanced acidity. This wine is just starting to enter its prime time, drink now alongside lamb shanks, ribeye, and hearty game, or cellar for up to 10 years.
