Clean and restrained on the nose. A little closed but the hint of potential here. A savoury edge and a very pretty wine. Mature fruit in the mouth. Some length and a savoury clean finish. Rather good. Joss Fowler, FINE+RARE, April 2015.

The 2014 Château d'Issan has an open-knit, fresh bouquet with light, tobacco-tinged black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, understated and elegant in style with a Saint-Julien-like finish. Six years ago, the bottle suggested a better wine, indicating that it peaked in the interim. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.
Tasted blind. Mid youthful crimson. Youthful leafy dark-fruit aroma. Scented on the palate, elegant tannins, refined. Great balance. Quite toasty/mocha from the oak but not excessively so. (JH)
You are immediately captured by the aromatics of this wine, such gorgeous complexity on display, layers of fern, heather, sage, white pepper, gun smoke. Taut tannins still at 6 years old, with nuanced, balanced, juicy and powerful cassis and bilberry fruits. No need to rush because this will age, but there is so much to enjoy here.
