The Winery
Château Giscours

The first written reference to the domain of Giscours, a deed confirming the sale of the Estate for 1,000 Pounds, dates from 1330 and refers to a fortified keep. Records of Giscours' vineyards go back to 1552. Giscour's early reputation for fine wine became increasingly apparent as time went on. A century later, Giscours charmed the palate of the "Roi Soleil" Louis the 14th, who is said to have had a particular inclination for the wine.
More about the Winery
Il a une couleur profonde à la lumière. L'odeur de tabac est apréciable. Saveur de framboise.
Un bon Château Giscours qui va bien avec de la viande de boeuf.
