Neal Martin for Robert Parker

The 2015 Château Cissac, which I tasted at the annual Cru Bourgeois tasting (and which I strangely didn't try at the primeur tasting), has a well-defined bouquet with notes of blackberry and undergrowth. I would have liked more intensity, but it is charming and precise. On the palate it is medium-bodied with fine tannin, quite angular in style with crisp tannins and lively black, cedar-like fruit on the finish.

winery

Château Cissac is located between the two municipalities of Saint Estèphe and Pauillac in the village of the same name. The château is located in the Haut-Médoc region and is therefore classified as a Cru Bourgeois Supérieur. The château was purchased by Louis Vialard in 1940, and Marie Vialard has been managing the estate for several years. The wines from Château Cissac stand for elegance, balance and drinking pleasure.

The Château is known, among other things, for its charming castle surrounded by extensive vineyards and forests. The winery is committed to preserving its natural environment and sustainable wine production by combining traditional cultivation methods with modern techniques and is considered a symbol of quality, craftsmanship and authenticity.

The vineyards are covered with fine gravel over limestone and planted with the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. This Cru Bourgeois is located in the very north of the Haut-Médoc in the immediate vicinity of the prominent Château Mouton-Rothschild andis always a first-class price-pleasure tip!
