93 James Suckling
This is full and powerful, with loads of fruit and a tropical undertone of berries and mango. Loads of tannins in this big wine, but still very fresh. This needs more time than the 2000. Give it five years. Pull the cork in 2015.

Aromas of blackberry, black olives and licorice. Medium- to full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a fruity finish. Refined and nicely done. Best after 2010. 21,665 cases made. ?JS

Giscours should be taken seriously by consumers as the quality has been ratcheted up over the last 7-8 years. The deep ruby/purple-hued 2003 offers complex, evolved aromatics of wood smoke, chocolate, charcoal, black cherry jam, and cassis. Lush, medium to full-bodied, and broad, with low acidity, copious glycerin, and a layered, persistent finish (it lasts for 40+ seconds), this beauty can be drunk now or cellared for 15 years.

Château Giscours
L’une des exploitations les plus grandes de Margaux, le Château Giscours fait partie des onze Troisièmes Grands Crus Classés de la région. A cheval sur les communes de Larbarde et d’Arsac, il se situe dans l’aire d’appellation Margaux. Après une longue histoire riche en événements, qui remonte au 14ème siècle, le Château Giscours est entre les mains de l’homme d’affaires néerlandais Eric Albada Jedgersma depuis 1995 et dirigé par le dynamique Alexander van Beek. Le domaine compte 95 hectares de vignes plantés de cabernet-sauvignon, de merlot et de cabernet franc, additionnés de quelques pieds de petit verdot. Le Grand Vin, Giscours, fait figure de vin riche et parfumé avec une belle texture, toujours positionné en haut de la pyramide des Margaux. Animé du même esprit qualitatif, le domaine propose également deux seconds vins puissants, La Sirène de Giscours et Le Rose de Giscours.
