The 2024 Blason d'Issan is a real charmer. There's more Cabernet Sauvignon in this year's blend because of issues with the Merlot. That is evident in the wine's aromatics and also in a flavor profile laced with purplish berry fruit, sage, rose petal, menthol and licorice. The 2024 finishes with a good backbone of acidity and tannin.
The 2024 Blason d’Issan offers a clean, pure bouquet with dark cherry, blueberry and violet scents. The palate is medium-bodied, fresh and vibrant, with light tannins lilting toward the finish that has plenty of buvabilité. Enjoy it over the next decade.
Black cherry, and floral aromatics open this easy-to-like, fresh, charming wine with its open character, and soft, fruity, finish. This will be perfect for near-term drinking while waiting for the Grand Vin to develop.
