Château Giscours 2019 (Futures)

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Giscours opens with notes of baked blackcurrants, plum preserves, tar and bouquet garni plus suggestions of moss-covered tree bark and chargrill. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers tons of black fruit preserves flavors, supported with a slightly chewy texture and just enough freshness, finishing long and savory. This is an impressive Giscours that seems to be holding its cards close to its chest right now—let's just see if it comes up trumps at bottling.." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (7/9/20),Ratings: (93-95)+, Drink: 2025-2048
