Tasting notes
Chateau Giscours 2018 has all the characteristics of a Grand Vin: power, finesse and the capacity to travel through time.
In this vintage, the particularly high percentage of Merlot in the final blend delivers to the wine a roundness and density that envelop the structure and the tannins naturally present on our soils of deep gravels.
