Description
Château d'Issan is a Third Growth of the 1855 Imperial Classification. The wine is made from the old vines in the Château d'Issan enclosure in the middle of the Margaux appellation.
The soil here is mainly made up of surface gravel on top of a clay subsoil, which contributes to optimal ripeness and freshness in our two grape varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
Château d'Issan expresses the exquisite bouquet so characteristic of Margaux, and stands out with its suppleness, subtlety, elegance and long keeping potential that come from its unique terroir.
