Chateau d'Issan 2020

Chateau d'Issan 2020 is a refined Margaux red blending Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. Dark berries, cassis, violets, and licorice lead into a vibrant, fleshy palate with refined tannins, impressive depth, and a penetrating, elegant finish built for graceful aging.

Food Pairing: Pairs best with roasted lamb loin, grilled ribeye, duck breast, or braised beef cheeks.
