Now fully mature, the 2000 Château d’Issan is an elegant, silky and medium-bodied expression of Margaux, with all its flowers, tobacco leaf, sweet red fruits and earthy nuances. With outstanding purity, richness and length, this is an elegant wine that has reached its prime and will stay there for another five years or so.

Delicate but clear tannic struture, textured blackberry and raspberry fruits, concentrated with touches of tobacco, saffron and espresso. This has structure and depth. The 1995 is more graceful today and I would suggest saving this for another five years time, or give it a good few hours in a carafe. 36hl/h yield (after frost in one plot largely used for the 2nd wine), 50% new oak. A wet spring with lots of rain in this vintage (in some ways similar to 2016 and 2018) but an exceptional Indian summer with harvest from September 25 to October 11.Jane Anson2nd February 2022

The 2000 Château d’Issan, which Emmanuel Cruse describes as the last of the “old style” of d’Issan, has an open bouquet with red plum, strawberry and touches of soy coming through with time. Touches of cooked meat also join the chorus line. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins, but quite sharp with pointed acidity. It is missing a little grip and displays a peppery, savoury, hickory-tinged finish with clove and white pepper on the aftertaste. Fully mature, I would drink this millennial soon.
