The first traces of the building that is now Château Cissac and the village of Cissac go back as far as the Romans.In fact, the village of Cissac was a relatively important Roman settlement.Tombs have been found in the village and in the grounds dating from the period of Merovee, the father of Charlemagne. However, the house as we know it today dates from 1769. Château Cissac extends over 50 hectares. It is from these vines that the "grand vin" is produced, Château Cissac and its "second wine", Reflets du Château Cissac. The vines are about 30 years old and 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot grape varieties are grown on fine gravel over chalk. Each vine variety does not produce similar quantities each year. However the proportions on the various single-variety wines that are assembled to make Château Cissac are strictly respected. There are ten huge wooden vats at Château Cissac, constructed in the great Medocain tradition. They and the building which houses them are over 100 years old and were restored in 1997. These ancient vats have been adapted to meet the requirements of modern oenology by the installation of a system of automatic heat regulation. The colour is marked by a deep purple red. The bouquet comes to the force once the wine has had time to breathe a little. A little elderberry, blackcurrants and other soft fruits are complemented by aromas of toast and a touch of tobacco to give a complex bouquet. With a little more air aromas of mild spices and some mineral notes develop. On the palate the wine is elegant and has a long, lingering finish. The mineral and fruity character of the wine balances the powerful, ripe tannins. This is definitely a Cru Bourgeois with potential and a long future ahead and is only just starting to open out. Available in Original Wooden Case. (12 x 75 cl)
