Wine Spectator 90
Intense aromas of blackberry tart with hints of rhubarb. Medium- to full-bodied, with soft tannins and a medium finish. This is really nice. Stylish wine. I like it better than the 2000. Best after 2008." (03/04) According to Robert Parker: "A floral, elegant, graceful, classic Margaux, the 2001 d'Issan displays medium-bodied flavors (cherries, black currants, and acacia flowers), and an understated, restrained personality...Drink this pure, well-balanced 2001 over the next 12-14 years." (06/04) K&L's Wine Tasting Notes: "68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot. Emmanuel Cruse has brought d'Issan back to its former glory years. Very ripe, red raspberry flavors and smooth tannins. Much more classic style than 2000.
《Chateau d'Issan》
Chateau d’Issan 位於波爾多Margaux區,在1855年分級制度裡獲選為三級酒莊。酒莊的歷史淵遠流長,可追朔自波爾多還是屬於英國領土的時代。相傳法皇亨利二世的結婚大典選用的就是Chateau d’Issan;19世紀的奧地利國王Franz Joseph 一世也曾說過:「Chateau d’Issan是對皇帝的貢品,也是對神的獻品。」而深受青睞。這座建立於十八世紀的酒堡幾經轉手,1945年由Cruse家族購入持續擴充葡萄園並提升釀酒設備。目前由 Emmanuel Cruse 掌管,擁有 52 公頃的葡萄園,種植 65% Cabernet Sauvignon 與35% Merlot,所釀出來的葡萄酒香氣變化多端,具有絲綢般的細膩質地。莊主Emmanuel Cruse 是酒莊的關鍵人物,Chateau d’Issan 曾經歷一段低潮,近年來在 Emmanuel 掌管下回復往日的興盛。
