Chateau Giscours 2014
Château Giscours hails from the Margaux appellation in the Médoc region of Bordeaux, France. This historic estate traces its origins back to 1552 when Pierre de Lhomme began planting vines on the wild land of Guyscoutz. Classified as a Troisième Grand Cru Classé in 1855, the winery is celebrated for its winemaking philosophy of reflecting the unique Margaux terroir through powerful yet refined and silken wines.
Wine Description
This deep ruby red wine presents a complex sensory profile with a bouquet of red cherry, blackcurrant, and raspberry intertwined with sophisticated notes of cedar, graphite, and forest floor. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and structured, offering a concentrated core of dark fruits and polished, silky tannins. The blend consists of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot, which provides additional substance and density to the mid-palate. It exhibits a beautiful balance and freshness, leading into a precise, long-lingering finish.
