Chateau d'Issan Margaux 2017 (750ml)

Ethereal and refined, the 2017 d’Issan reveals delicate aromas of plum, violet, lilac and graphite, underpinned by dark chocolate and subtle spice. Medium-bodied, the palate is silky and fresh, delivering layers of ripe red and black fruits framed by polished, very fine tannins. A blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot, aged in 50% new oak, this is a graceful, quietly complex Margaux that favours elegance and perfume over sheer power. Already charming, but it will reward a few more years of patience.
