James Suckling 94
Blackberry, blueberry, graphite, clove, tobacco and mahogany on the nose. It's medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins. Very tight and refined with a mineral finish. Pretty finesse and focus. Second wine.

Vintage
The fi nal blend took place mid-January with a harmonious and obvious selection which brought us to integrate a high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon (77%). Chateau d’Issan 2014 vintage cannot be compared with any other one but is clearly identifi able to its original terroir.
