Tasting Notes and Scores
The 2014 Cissac was very backward and broody on the nose, the word that comes to mind -- stilted. The palate is better with plenty of fruit although I find it not quite as enmeshed with the oak as I would have liked. Plus, there is a slight bitterness on the finish. Cissac can make splendid Haut-Médoc, but I am not convinced that this is one of them. Tasted September 2016.

65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, 14 months in barrel (30% new). Deep crimson. Smells of sweet, small dark wild berries and blueberries – inviting – and a touch of oak sweetness. Tighter and fresher than I expected on the palate. Juicy but firm. Dark and dry. Middle of the road but in balance. (JH)
