Cherry red color, nose: basket of black berries, palate: melted tannins, harmonious, fruity, very accessible.
A brilliant vintage, made for patient connoisseurs.
This estate is now enjoying its finest run since its glory days in the 1970s, and the 2020 Giscours is excellent.
This cuvée comes from a selection of two plots planted with Grenache, one in 1900 "Charbonnières", the other in 1949 "Esqueirons".
Full-bodied, velvety and polished, it's broad and enveloping, with an ample core of fruit, ripe tannins and succulent acids, concluding with a long, precise finish.
Delicate floral nuances, a hint of violets, underpinned by dark forest berries, tobacco notes, an inviting bouquet.
Its colour is a beautiful bright red, the nose is very aromatic with notes of red fruits, liquorice and spices.
Elegant and round wine with well-balanced tannins; to be served with delicate and light food.
