Le Haut-Medoc de Giscours Margaux 2018
(Haut-Medoc, Bordeaux, France) - [JS 92] [WE 92]

About the Winery:
Château Giscours is a historic property in the Margaux appellation, with vines first planted in the 16th century. Since 1995, Château Giscours has entered a new era in its history following its acquisition by the Albada Jelgersma family.

Grown in plots selected from our historic Haut-Médoc terroirs, the family’s third wine has been made by the Giscours team ever since it was created in 1992.

Haut-Médoc Giscours is a convivial, fresh wine for your enjoyment. It reveals the beautiful aromatic radiance that forms part of the Giscours identity.

Our vineyard workers meticulously cultivate our Haut-Médoc vines (60 ha in total) all year round in keeping with the same philosophy. Balance and finesse remain key. The terroir, a mixture of fine gravel and sand, ensures a hugely delicate wine.

With abundant fruit, delicate tannins and a hugely fresh finish, this is a wine of which we are very proud, and which fully deserves its place alongside Giscours’s top wines.

Ratings & Reviews

92 Points - James Suckling:
"A deep, layered Haut-Medoc with blackcurrant, mineral, sweet tobacco and bark. It’s full-bodied and tight, but shows reserve and balance. Savory. Supple. Best after 2022, but already a beauty."  (Jan 2021)

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"From an important part of the Giscours vineyard that is outside Margaux, this wine gives an echo of the quality and style that makes the top wine so impressive. The suave tannins have a fine structure and support the rich black currant fruits. It is a wine to age for a few years and drink from 2024." - Roger Voss (Nov 2021)
