The 2019 Blason d'Issan is a pretty, fruity second wine to drink over the next decade or so. Crème de cassis, licorice, grilled herbs, lavender and dark spices are front and center. This elegant, mid-weight Margaux is all class.
Wine Advocate: 88-90 Points
The 2019 Blason d'Issan has a deep garnet-purple color and opens with scents of raspberry pie, warm plums and blackcurrant pastilles plus touches of garrique, tobacco leaf and dusty soil with a hint of bay leaves. Medium-bodied, the palate is refreshing with an approachable, soft texture, filling the mouth with crunchy red and black fruits, finishing with a lively herbal note.
Neal Martin (Vinous): 87 Points
The 2019 Blason d'Issan, matured in 35% new oak, has opened up a little since I tasted it from barrel, though it does retain a sense of strictness. Bell-pepper-infused black fruit scents feature on the earthy nose. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, Merlot-driven red fruit, gentle and caressing. Not a complex second wine, but lilting and quite accessible on the finish.
