Giscours 1982 is a red wine from the Margaux appellation in Bordeaux, marked by a blend predominantly composed of Cabernet Sauvignon. This third growth exhibits an alcohol content of 12.5%, resulting from a vintage characterised by a notably hot summer, which facilitated early phenolic maturity. Aged in traditional French oak, it reveals a mature profile featuring dried blackcurrants, leather, and smoked cedar, with a texture supported by resolved tannins. Giscours, established in 1552, is known for its gravelly soils that enhance its wines` complexity, making this vintage a crucial reference point for the estate`s evolution and the region`s vinicultural history.

Respectably deep crimson but a muddy, smudgy nose. Sweet and simple. Some tannins, but they are not really integrated with the fruit nor, it seems, ever will be. (JR)
