Chateau Giscours-Margaux 2015 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48
Château Giscours has a rich history dating back to the 14th century. 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48 A defensive keep overlooked a wild and inhospitable countryside. 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48 In 1552, Pierre de Lhomme, a rich draper from Bordeaux, bought the noble house of "Guyscoutz", built a vast estate around it and planted the very first vines. 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48 The wine-growing adventure was underway and the successors of our wealthy merchant were able in turn to contribute their stone to this formidable edifice. 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48 In 1995, Eric Albada Jelgersma, a Dutch businessman took over the operation and undertook meticulous work to rehabilitate the vineyard as well as the renovation of the buildings to restore all the nobility that befits this Third Grand Cru Classé of 1855. 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48 From the meeting of the best grape varieties with an extraordinary terroir, essential links in this fabulous alchemy, the men of Château Giscours have only one leitmotif: an ever greater, constant and inherent quality in this grand cru. 4df5d4d9d819b397555d03cedf085f48
