Wine Description

(2009 Vintage) This Classified Growth in 1855 is the first label of Château Giscours. It is of great finesse and elegance. Delicacy and power are combined in this flask to bring you the elegance expected of a great Margaux wine. The aging potential of this great wine is between 8 and 20 years or even more for the most exceptional vintages.

    Berry Bros: Lovely mature claret from one of Margaux’s best: cedar, forest floor, crisp and delicate cassis, with good length and fine tannins.

    "A very refined red. One of the best Giscours in years. Wonderful aromas of crushed raspberries, blackberries and other fruits. Full-bodied, with very fine tannins and a long, caressing finish. All in finesse. Best after 2001. 20,000 cases made."

    Rating: 3/5 - As reviewed by Decanter. Quite closed nose. Lush, rich Cassis-fruit flavours - youthful, succulent and fine-textured., with power and length.
