The 2007 D'Issan has a reserved bouquet, nicely defined and focused with good tension, a mixture of red and black fruit mixed with cedar and cigar box scents. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin. It is nicely balanced even though it is missing some depth on the finish. Looking back, it is quite Saint Julien in style, and it should drink nicely over the next 5-7 years. Tasted March 2015.

Medium red-ruby. Black cherry, licorice, chocolate and menthol on the nose. Slightly medicinal flavors of dark fruits and licorice show moderate nuance but good sweetness and plumpness of tex ture. Some tangy red berry notes emerge with aeration. Finishes with decent length and good lift. Score: 88 Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar 01 July 2010 |

A light to medium-bodied, pretty, but slightly austere wine, this dark ruby-hued 2007 reveals spicy berry fruit and tobacco leaf notes, and a soft, round style. Consume it over the next 7-10 years. Yields were a tiny 23.5 hectoliters per hectare. Score: 88 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2010-2020 30 April 2010 |

This offers a nice combination of sweet herbs and berries on the nose. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and an enjoyable finish. Hard not to drink now. Drink now. 8,335 cases made. Score: 86 James Suckling, Wine Spectator 31 March 2010 |

Rather lean, with some berry and currant character, mineral and mint undertones. Light finish. Score: 84 - 87 James Suckling, Wine Spectator 31 March 2008 |

Heady nose with fresh red fruit and violets. Lots of fruit purity and energy. Very refreshing with a good finish. Lovely Margaux. Score: 89 - 91 Albany Vintners, - 01 April 2008 |
