Château Giscours 2023 – Margaux, Grand Cru Classé. BDX France

Overview
A high-energy, expressive Margaux delivering immediate pleasure while still showing meaningful structural depth and ongoing development, standing out as one of the most dynamic performers in the vintage flight.

Aromas & Flavors
Black cherry, ripe raspberry, cassis, violets, crushed graphite, sweet baking spice, subtle cedar, polished oak accents.

Mouthfeel
Silky and incredibly smooth with refined tannins, vibrant acidity, excellent mid-palate drive, and a long, clean, finely etched finish that carries both power and finesse.

Food Pairings
Filet mignon, duck breast with cherry reduction, herb-crusted lamb, mushroom risotto, aged Gruyère or Comté.

Verdict
Fast, explosive, and immediately enjoyable while still evolving in the glass. Combines intensity with polish and finesse, positioning itself as a serious front-runner among the Margaux lineup in this vintage.

🍷 Personal Pick
This is the bottle that made the room lean in, full throttle energy with real elegance underneath. Already thrilling, and still climbing. Now or later will definitely showcase its elegancy!
