Tasted at the Chateau Giscours vertical, the 2008 Chateau Giscours is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot picked between September 30 and October 1. The bouquet is very well defined with ebullient red berry fruit mixed with orange peel and cedar aromas. There is something that distantly echoes a C?te de Beaune! Perhaps the purity on offer here? The palate is very well balanced with a keen line of acidity, very fine tannins and ample freshness. I loved this Giscours from barrel and it is now living up to my expectations. The terroir shines through on this wine - true Margaux. This is an excellent wine from winemaker Alexandre Van Beek. Tasted June 2015.

這款酒蘊含著濃郁的黑李子和黑醋栗的水果芳香，還伴隨有礦物質的氣息，余味中帶有些許意大利濃咖啡的風味。該酒略顯堅實，但比起同年份的其他酒款來說，這款酒更帶肉感。
