Tasting notes

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Giscours opens with expressive cassis, blackberry and red currants on the nose with touches of cedar chest, roses and pencil lead. Medium to full-bodied with a good core of muscular fruit and firm, grainy tannins, it finishes long.

About this wine

Château Giscours - Margaux

The Taste Profile

Château Giscours is a wine that is known for its elegance and finesse. It is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, which gives it a complex and layered taste profile. On the nose, you will find aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a silky texture and flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of oak. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, giving the wine a long and smooth finish. The History of the Producer

Château Giscours is located in the Margaux appellation of Bordeaux, France. The estate has a long and rich history, dating back to the 14th century when it was owned by the Knights Templar. In the 16th century, the property was acquired by the de Lur-Saluces family, who owned it for over 200 years. In the 19th century, the estate was purchased by the Cruse family, who were prominent Bordeaux wine merchants. They invested heavily in the property, building a new winery and expanding the vineyards. Today, Château Giscours is owned by Eric Albada Jelgersma, a Dutch businessman who has continued to invest in the estate and improve the quality of the wine. Where to Enjoy Château Giscours

Château Giscours is a wine that is best enjoyed with food. It pairs well with red meat, game, and strong cheeses. It is also a wine that can be aged for many years, so it is a great choice for collectors or those who want to experience the evolution of a wine over time. If you are looking for a special occasion to enjoy Château Giscours, consider a romantic dinner for two or a celebratory meal with friends and family. The wine is sure to impress and create lasting memories.
