450th vintage of the wine estate, Château Giscours 2021 has an identity that is already reminiscent of some of the great Giscours vintages. It is perfectly balanced, crunchy, and well-structured, influenced by the Cabernet Sauvignon that is at the heart of our identity. 2021 was marked by a memorable harvest, in which we had to be patient, make precise choices and wait for each vine plant, each plot and each terroir to be ready to surrender its berries. The harvesting of the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes lasted more than a month, sometimes with intervals of several days, inviting the grapes to achieve their best expression. That precision shines through in this Château Giscours: a luminous wine, with the aromatic brilliance and fine tannins we look for at Giscours. A lovely, balanced structure, with a great freshness. Château Giscours 2021 is the perfect expression of the vintage. It reveals the risk-taking and meticulous work required of our teams, in deep harmony with our terroir. It is a wine we are proud of.
