This is such a great wine: I’m sorry I rushed it and had it after eight years. It could have aged another 10–15 years. Decanted it four hours before serving and it was still tight, although it opened in the glass. Served it with sous vide leg of lamb (finished on the grill) and roasted potatoes, and it was a match made in heaven. — 2 months ago

Very earthy with a taste of berries definitely let this one breathe and you won’t be disappointed! — 6 years ago

Another fantastic special from The Wine Society. Went very well with sirloin steak cooked on the BBQ. — 7 years ago

Good Bordeaux, true to style. Earthworm nose. Tastes of dark berries and pine — herbaceous. A little lean. Would probably age nicely. 90. Given the swill I’ve been drinking lately — a treat. — 2 months ago

Very good price to quality ratio for a Bordeaux. Reserved fruit, some earth, opened up nicely. — 5 years ago

Beautiful wine! 2009 Margaux from Château D'Issan ...even more enjoyable knowing that we have actually visited and toured the 15th century Château....one of the few actually surrounded by a moat!

Will post tasting notes soon, but this bottle opened up beautifully. 😀🍷🇫🇷 — 6 years ago

Dark rubi robe, nose of cedar, violets and spices, anise. Very open and accessible in the mouth, good volume and length, mineral, top soil notes. This is oh, so good. Peak drinking now but will probably stay at this level next 10 to 12 years. Our kind of claret. — 6 months ago

Not the best vintage for the left bank, but this wine was very well balanced with refined tannins....lovely earthly and rich dark plum and black fruit notes. A very enjoyable Haut-Medoc wine from Château D'Issan. — 6 years ago

Much brighter than the 2009 chateau d'issan that we had. Good amount of fruit but not a fruit bomb. Good, tasty. More complexities than the Dissan. That one is much more dark. — 7 years ago

If the d'Issan was a treat this was...Utterly delicious, and from a larger format would've been sublime I have no doubt — 9 years ago
