Château Giscours Margaux 1855 3ième Cru 2015
A ton of espresso and cocoa bean grilling on the opening, softening through to damson, black cherry, orange peel, touch of heat and this needs longer in bottle to soften out the concentrated, slightly awkward tannins. Suggest giving this a few more years in bottle, because there is plenty of potential but not giving its best. 50% new oak for ageing. Harvest September 15 to October 10. Denis Dubourdieu consultant, Didier Forêt technical director.
