94 James Suckling
Wonderfully perfumed with dark berry, mineral and chocolate character. Full body, great tannins and a long and racy finish. Very refined. Tight and racy. Better in 2016.
93 Robert Parker
A strong effort from proprietor Emmanuel Cruse, d’Issan’s 2009 was fashioned from minuscule yields of 18 hectoliters per hectare, and its 13.7% natural alcohol set a record at this estate. Composed of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon and 38% Merlot, it exhibits a classic Margaux fragrance of acacia flowers/violets, blueberries, cassis, licorice and camphor. Opulent and full-bodied with silky tannins as well as a rich, dense style, it will be interesting to compare the 2009 with the brilliant 2000 and 2005 over the next two to three decades. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2035+.

17 Rene Gabriel
Dunkles Granat, recht satt in der Mitte, rubiner Rand. Intensives Bouquet, recht viel schwazre Beeren, Pfefferkörner und ein Hauch Trüffel. Im Gaumen fest, verlangend, feine Kapselnoten im mit Gerbstoffen beladenen Extrakt. Grosses Potential aber wie immer (zu) hart. (17/20). 14: Ich trank ihn mit anderen, meist günstigeren 2009er zusammen in Düsseldorf. Er ist sehr würzig und erstaunlich tief. Dabei gibt er sich genau so kompakt und rustikal wie bei der Fassprobe.

91 Wine Spectator
A taut but fresh style, with plum skin, mesquite and mineral notes running along. There's a solid core of steeped blackberry fruit in reserve, and the perfumy finish has latent grip. Best from 2013 through 2023. –JM

Producer
Château D'Issan
Château d'Issan continues to impress every year, with increasingly better wines vintage after vintage. Classified as a Third Growth in the 1855 Classification, d’Issan remains one of the leading producers in Margaux. As a historic estate, the property has gone through several owners up until 1945, when a well-known Médoc family bought the château – the Cruses. Currently, Emmanuel Cruse manages the property with the help of the Lorenzetti family of Château Pédesclaux. The vineyards stretch over 44 hectares, with a majority of the vines planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest to Merlot. Their wines are reaching new heights, with rigorous selection of the best fruits and up to 18 months of aging in 50% new oak.
