Den Chateau D Issan 2020 Margaux beschreibt William Kelley wie folgt:
A very strong effort for this estate, the 2020 D'Issan wafts from the glass with aromas of dark berries and cassis mingled with notions of violets and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and vibrant, with good depth at the core, refined tannins and a penetrating finish, it's an elegant, perfumed Margaux that's built to age with grace.
Den Chateau D Issan 2020 Margaux beschreibt James Suckling wie folgt:
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. Supple yet structured. It builds at the finish. Try after 2028.
Den Chateau D Issan 2020 Margaux beschreibt Jeb Dunnuck wie folgt:
The 2020 Château D'Issan is a stunningly good Margaux, and this is another estate that seems to producer brilliant wines every vintage. Pulling from 51.04 hectares of vines and a blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, the rest Petit Verdot and Malbec, it's a selection of just 45% of the total production and spent 18 months in 50% new and 50% once-used French oak. Beautiful, spiced-laced red and black fruits, chocolate, smoked tobacco, and incense notes define the aromatics. These carry to a medium to full-bodied restrained, elegant 2020 with terrific mid-palate density, ripe, velvety tannins, and terrific overall balance. This is one of those beautiful, classic wines that grows on you with time in the glass, and hats off to Emmanuel Cruse for yet another incredible wine. It's going to evolve for another 25-30 years if well-stored.
Den Chateau D Issan 2020 Margaux beschreibt Fallstaff wie folgt:
94 Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, tiefer Kern, zarte Randaufhellung. Ein Hauch von Nugatkaramell, florale Nuancen, zart nach Lakritze und Veilchen, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, gute Süße, schokoladige Textur, reife, tragende Tannine, die auch den Abgang prägen, kraftvoller Stil, ein würziger Speisenbegleiter, hat Substanz und Potenzial. (2030–2055)
