93 Jane Anson
Sweet blackberry and loganberry fruit, a litlte soft through the mid palate, this lacks conentration on the finish if you are comparing it to the previous vintage, and yet it is sappy, cheerful and enjoyable, with sage and rosemary spice, a ton of lift and mouthwatering finish. Carefully constructed, leans into the vintage, not sacrificing its Margaux typicity. 41hl/h yield after frost in some parts of the vineyard. Axel Marchal and Valerie Lavigne consultants, 50% new oak. Harvest September 15 to October 5.Jane Anson14th February 2024
92 Vinous
The 2017 Giscours has a sense of airiness on the nose, well defined with rose petal, a touch of pencil shavings and more red fruit than the 2016. It unfolds nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. It's not quite as pixelated or as precise as the previous vintage, but it's quite powerful for a 2017, with a very peppery, spicy finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle. This is a fine Giscours. Neal Martin2nd April 2025
