2020 Chateau d'Issan Margaux [JS97][D96][JD96][V95][WE93-95][WA94+] Schioppettino polished tannins that are intenseProducer: Chateau d'Issan Region: Margaux, Bordeaux, France Blend: 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot, 1% Malbec Year: 2020 James Suckling, 97 Points "Gorgeous aromas of dried flowers, currants, bark, and forest floor. Lead pencil, too. Tobacco. Full bodied yet racy and polished with fine and silky tannins that run the length of the wine. Crunchy and fresh at the end. Give this five or six years to come together.
