Lot 70 Details
CHÂTEAU D'ISSAN 2005

Margaux. 3ième Cru Classé
u. 4 x vts. 2 x scraped labels.

The more serious grand vin twin, the 2005 d’Issan, has a stunning nose of spring flowers, blackcurrant and blue/black fruits galore, and an impressively opaque dark plum/purple color. With a rich, concentrated and pure mouthfeel, wonderfully sweet tannin, full-bodied density and richness, but elegance in abundance, this is a stunner, and one of the great Margaux of the vintage. Drink it now and over the next 20 years. June 2015 Drink: 2015-2035 WA 95

4 bts.    per lot $500 - $700

Realised: $1,020
