Chateau d'Issan Collection

Château d’Issan, a prestigious Third Growth estate from the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, lies in the heart of the Margaux appellation. With a history dating back to the 12th century, it has earned a reputation for producing elegant, terroir-driven wines that capture the essence of its exceptional vineyards. The château’s picturesque architecture, often likened to a fairy-tale castle, reflects its noble heritage and longstanding prominence in Bordeaux winemaking.

Owned by the Cruse family since 1945, Château d’Issan has thrived under their stewardship, with continued investments in both vineyard management and cellar techniques. The estate spans 120 hectares, with 59 hectares dedicated to vines, primarily planted with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, typical of Margaux's balanced blends.

Château d’Issan is celebrated for its wines' finesse, complexity, and aging potential. Its signature Grand Vin is known for its perfumed bouquet, silky tannins, and layers of dark fruit, floral, and earthy notes. In addition to its classified growth, the estate produces a second wine, Blason d’Issan, offering an approachable expression of the property’s unique terroir. Château d’Issan remains a beacon of tradition and quality, showcasing the enduring legacy of Bordeaux’s most iconic appellation.
