Thursday, May 20, 2021 - d'Issan is one of my favorite, go-to Bordeaux producers. This vintage is a good example though it really is still too young go get a good impression of it. Medium-bodied, not as powerful and rich as some classic vintages like '05, '10 and '12 (a surprisingly amazing one for the vintage), but this still has all of the typical notes - creme de casis, some tobacco and a sweet black and blue fruit. I think the '15 is more expressive and showing better right now. Will try and forget about my remaining bottles for a few years.
