Giscours Margaux 2025 Pre-Arrival

97–98 Points – James Suckling
“Such a balanced and harmonious red with control, texture and length. It has aromas of red berries, cedar, pebbles and baking spices. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins. Velvety and attractive, with a long, flavorful, precise finish. A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc.”

95–97+ Points – Antonio Galloni, Vinous
“The 2025 Giscours is a wine of elegance and finesse. Dark fruit, lavender, spice, cedar and graphite all build beautifully in the glass. A gorgeous Margaux with exceptional harmony and persistence.”

94–97 Points – Jeb Dunnuck
“As to the Grand Vin, red, blue, and black fruits, intermixed with spring flowers, iris, graphite, and sappy tobacco, all define the 2025 Château Giscours, giving it a beautiful Cabernet-driven style. Based on 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc that's resting in 50% new oak, it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a focused, pure, precise mouthfeel, beautiful yet building tannins, and nicely integrated acidity. It checks in at 13.2% alcohol with a pH of 3.68.”

94–96 Points – Neal Martin, Vinous
“Classic Margaux aromatics with blackberry, violet and cedar notes. Pure, focused and wonderfully persistent with excellent delineation and finesse.”

94–96 Points – Wine Advocate (Yohan Castaing)
“The 2025 Giscours is another brilliant wine from this resurgent property, unwinding in the glass with aromas of wild berries, violets, rose petals and pencil shavings. Medium- to full-bodied, deep and perfumed, it's suave and seamless, with ultra-refined tannins, vibrant acids and a long, perfumed finish.”
