Le Haut-Medoc d'Issan has the soul of a great Margaux without the price tag. It's the third wine of the famed Third-Growth, Chateau d'Issan in the Margaux appellation. "Le Haut" is three miles due west of the main estate in Arsac in the Haut-Medoc. This 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot blend offers fantastic accessibility out of the gate with a vigorous decant. The superb 2016 vintage showed with solid wines at every level of the Bordeaux hierarchy, especially in the Haut-Medoc. The wine has a bright and vivid bouquet of dark cherry, blueberry, and lead pencil. This fruit component also drives the pallet with a medium-bodied texture and mineral accents. There's solid pedigree in the glass for the price.
