Harmony of the elements
Château d’Issan is in the middle of the Margaux appellation, a truly privileged location, which explains the outstanding quality of its wines. The mild weather, regulated by being close to the sea and the Gironde Estuary, provides ideal conditions for vine growth.

Wine Advocate Robert Parker 93 Points
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.
“Haute Couture” Vinification
Fermentation progressed in the traditional way with very gentle pumping over to preserve the structure and freshness of the grapes. Three weeks of maceration were followed by malolactic fermentation, further custom-tailored for each grape variety. By mid-November, we were ready to fill the barrels.ity.
