Giscours
In fairytale fashion, Alexandeer van Beek arrived at this Margaux estate in 1995 to do the 2 week harvest. He stayed, became the managing director, overseeing major replanting and huge growth in quality. A Chateau with a history dating back to 1552, Giscours is flamboyant with great texture and full of personality.

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (94-96)The 2021 Giscours is fabulous. In fact, the 2021 is one of the best Giscours in recent memory. Silky and impeccable in its balance, the 2012 possesses magnificent elegance that brings out its pedigreed personality. Rose petal, lavender, spice, gravel and black cherry all come together, framed by silky tannins that wrap it all up. The 2021 is less aromatic than most recent vintages, but the depth here is considerable, as is the potential. Taste two times. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90-92)The 2021 La Sirène de Giscours is a pretty rich, dense second wine. Black cherry, leather, tobacco and deeply pitched spice notes lend notable presence. Rich, profound, layered and nuanced. The 2021 stands out for its strong aromatic presence, but it's also quite deep and elegant at the same time. The Cabernets are quite expressive in this tasting. The Sirène is a fabulous second wine. Tasted two times. |
