Château Giscours 2010 is a Third Growth from Margaux, made predominantly from Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot in one of Bordeaux’s most highly regarded modern vintages.
Blackcurrant, blackberry and dark plum are joined by violet, graphite, cedar, mint and subtle dried-herb notes. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, with concentrated fruit, fresh acidity and firm but increasingly integrated tannins leading to a long, refined finish.
The 2010 blend is 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Merlot. The high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon gives the wine structure and definition, while the Merlot adds texture and depth.
Food Pairing: Pair with roast lamb, beef tenderloin, duck, venison, mushroom dishes, truffle preparations, or aged cheeses.
Serve around 60–64°F. Stand the bottle upright before serving and decant for approximately 45–60 minutes if opening now.
