“Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core.  Aromatic nose with good concentration and ripe fruit, blackcurrants, blackberries, ripe plums. On the palate well-structured with firm yet ripe tannins, elegant fruit and discreet spiciness. Very good length.” 92pts - Markus Del Monego
Cissac sits on a small gravel plateau just 5kms or so from Mouton, Lafite and Cos d'Estournel. The 2022 wine, with its high extract (IPT) score of 94, is made up of 50% Cabernet sauvignon, 43% merlot and the balance malbec and petit verdot, all aged in 25% new oak. The vines are mature (34yo average) and as you would expect from the location and the perfect vintage, this is a wine that can be cellared for almost as long as you would want. Cissac however, is always a fleshy and well-balanced red that can be served youngish with rich and hearty fare. 
“This Haut-Médoc stalwart continues its subtle stylistic evolution towards more charm and finesse with the 2022 Cissac, a strong effort evocative of graphite, tobacco, smoke, cassis and violets mingled with well-integrated hints of oak. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and layered, it's classy and vibrant, concluding with a slightly austere finish. This long-lived red is a blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot and 5.5% Petit Verdot and the rest Malbec.” 89-91+pts - Yohan Castaing, The Wine Advocate
