Tasting notes
Giscours 2024 is wonderfully vibrant from the offset. Deep purple in colour, the nose offers up notes of ripe cassis with a touch of spice – hinting at the Petit Verdot in the blend. The mid-palate is similarly complex, with layers of moreish red fruit, balanced perfectly by fresh acidity. The silky fine tannins persist on the finish. This is impressively approachable and enjoyable. Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot

Based on 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot, the 2024 Château Giscours offers beautiful darker currants, cassis, and violets intermixed with classy oak notes. Medium-bodied and nicely concentrated on the palate, it offers elegant tannins, beautiful balance, and impressive length. The harvest was very late here, and it shows in the depth and concentration of the wine.

Deep garnet-purple colored. Features scents of fresh blackberries and black raspberries with hints of pine sap, pencil shavings, and Provence herbs in the background. The light to medium-bodied palate is light on its feet and vibrant with a lively line and lightly chewy tannins, finishing earthy.
