With an alcohol content of 13% vol., this Haut-Médoc has a classic Bordeaux style - structured, multi-layered and with impressive ageing potential.

Château Cissac Haut-Médoc 2017 is an excellent accompaniment to classic meat dishes such as grilled fillet of beef, lamb chops or game dishes. It also reveals all its finesse with savoury braised dishes such as boeuf bourguignon or braised duck. Cheese lovers will particularly appreciate it with mature Comté or a flavoursome Roquefort. Thanks to its structure and elegance, this wine is suitable for festive occasions as well as for an enjoyable drinking moment in private. It can be enjoyed now, but also shows good potential for a few years of bottle ageing.
