CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2013 Giscours has a very simple nose that is patently devoid of fruit and rather earthy. The palate is medium-bodied and peppery with light grip and dry tannins. Simple and innocuous on the finish, the 2013 is unexciting.
Neal Martin
Tasted at the Chateau Giscours vertical, the 2013 Chateau Giscours is conspicuously lighter in color than either the 2012 or 2014. Those red cherries and fresh strawberry fruit are intact after bottling, not complex, but clean and fresh, now accompanied by a black olive tincture. The palate is medium-bodied with a pointed, angular opening and it feels a little hollow thereafter. As I (rather glibly) commented in my barrel report, it stumbles over the finish line and that is still the case. It will be an early-drinking Giscours that should be consumed within the first ten years. Tasted June 2015.

Tasted blind. Mid garnet. Fresh dark fruit, nicely aromatic, some tea leaf. Juicy and finely textured. Very nice balance and elegant. Scented to the end. (JH)
