Description

Experience the elegance of a fully mature Cru Bourgeois from one of Bordeaux’s finest vintages. Château Cissac, located in the heart of the Haut-Médoc, it is known for its classic Left Bank style, combining structure, finesse, and complexity
The 1985 Château Cissac, a well-regarded Cru Bourgeois, offers a delightful window into the elegance of mature Bordeaux wines.
The 1985 vintage in Bordeaux (considered a benchmark year) was exceptional, marked by a near-perfect growing season with warm, dry conditions and wines that are balanced, elegant, and approachable, with fine tannins and excellent aging potential. Château Cissac, known for producing structured, age-worthy wines, would have benefited significantly from the vintage’s conditions.
Tasting notes considered to be;
Nose: Complex and mature aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, leather, tobacco, and dried herbs, with earthy undertones and hints of graphite or cigar box.
Palate: Medium-bodied with softened tannins and a silky texture. Flavors of dried red and black fruits (cherry, blackberry), licorice, and a touch of spice (clove, cinnamon). Tertiary notes of forest floor and dried mushrooms add depth.
Finish: Elegant, with lingering notes of leather, tobacco, and a touch of minerality.
This wine is at its peak maturity or slightly past, making it ideal for lovers of fully developed Bordeaux.
This rare 39-year-old bottle, with a fully intact, legible label and foil (an indicator to a well looked after bottle), is perfect for collectors / enthusiasts of mature wines, or as a gift to commemorate a 1985 milestone year.
Ready to drink now, it pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef Wellington, or aged cheeses.
