Château Giscours Margaux 1855 3ième Cru 2017
Sweet blackberry and loganberry fruit, a litlte soft through the mid palate, this lacks conentration on the finish if you are comparing it to the previous vintage, and yet it is sappy, cheerful and enjoyable, with sage and rosemary spice, a ton of lift and mouthwatering finish. Carefully constructed, leans into the vintage, not sacrificing its Margaux typicity. 41hl/h yield after frost in some parts of the vineyard. Axel Marchal and Valerie Lavigne consultants, 50% new oak. Harvest September 15 to October 5.
