James Suckling:

"Lots of deep blue fruit with blackberries and grape skins, as well as tar and asphalt. Lead, too. It’s full-bodied, yet very tight with powerful, defined tannins, surrounded by attractive ripe fruit. Serious. Reminds me of the excellent 1975. A blend of 65% cabernet sauvignon and 35% merlot."

Markus del Monego MW:

"Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core. Initially slightly closed. The nose opens up well, displaying an aroma reminiscent of multi-layered fruit, dark berries and black cherries, sweet elderberries and mulberries in the background. On the palate very elegant with a lot of freshness, crisp fruit, hints of mild spices and dark chocolate in the background. An excellent with aromatic depth and length."

Jeb Dunnuck:

"Based on 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot, the 2019 Château Giscours is another stunning 2019. Deep purple, with a fresh yet concentrated style on the palate, it has lots of red, black, and blue fruits as well as notes of sandalwood, flowery incense, and graphite. It´s not massive, by any means, yet is flawlessly balanced and has integrated acidity, followed by a great finish. It´s very much in the more precise, pretty, elegant style of this vintage yet still packs plenty of mid-palate depth. Give bottles 4-5 years of bottle age and enjoy over the following 25 years or so."

The Wine Advocate

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Giscours opens with notes of baked blackcurrants, plum preserves, tar and bouquet garni plus suggestions of moss-covered tree bark and chargrill. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers tons of black fruit preserves flavors, supported with a slightly chewy texture and just enough freshness, finishing long and savory. This is an impressive Giscours that seems to be holding its cards close to its chest right now—let´s just see if it comes up trumps at bottling."

Decanter Magazine

"This is a serious Giscours, with medium intensity violet-edged ruby colour. High aromatics on the nose with cumin and cloves, followed by black cherry and cassis fruits that do a good job of filling the palate, and a cooling menthol finish as the tannins close in. Enjoyable overall, succulent yet with precision. Harvest lasted for an entire month, from September 11 to October 12, the longest ever at the estate and a reflection of more precise plot-by-plot work, with vines separated according to age and terroir. Thomas Duclos is consultant here as of the 2019 vintage. A yield of 44hl/ha."

"Flowers, black, red and blue fruits, wet earth, spice and smoke produce the attention-grabbing perfume. Pure silk and velvet in texture, the wine has richness and depth, while focusing on its purity and freshness. The long finish, with its fabulous lift and sweetness in the fruit keeps on going, long after the wine has left the glass. The wine blends 65% Cabernet Sauvignon with 35% Merlot, 13.9% alcohol. Picking took place September 11 - October 12, making this the longest harvest in the history of Giscours. This is the best vintage produced in the long history of Chateau Giscours."

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en Primeur.
Couleur sombre, intense, belle, aux reflets sombres. Nez intense, fin, au fruité pur, mûr et subtil. Caressant à l'attaque, très, très fruité en milieu de bouche, doté d'un beau toucher et d'un corps à la fois velouté et tendu, le vin évolue complexe dans ses saveurs, long, sur des tannins fins. Voici la plus belle stimulation ressentie en primeur dans ce cru qui a entrepris de faire bouger les lignes. Assemblage : 65 % cabernet sauvignon, 35 % merlot. Degré d'alcool : 13°9 – pH : 3,75. Rendement : 45 hl/ha. 2026- 2050.

VINOUS

"Quite simply, Giscours is magnificent in 2019, and also one of the rising stars of Margaux today. Pliant, supple and creamy, the 2019 races out of the glass with striking dimension. Ripe red cherry, red plum, blood orange, spice and new leather all flesh out in a radiant, finessed Giscours that hits all the right notes. The 2019 is fabulous - that´s all there is to it. Tasted two times.
My tasting with General Manager Alexander Van Beek and Estate Manager Lorenzo Pasquini was one of the highlights of several weeks of the Zoom calls all of us will remember from this very particular campaign. According to Van Beek and Pasquini, 2019 was one of the longest harvests on record. The Merlot was picked early, to preserve freshness, while the Cabernet needed several additional weeks to achieve full physiological ripeness. Cuvaisons were long, 35 days on average, but pumpovers were stopped earlier in order to avoid overextraction. This new approach, along with the input of super-talented consulting oenologist Thomas Duclos, yielded two superb 2019s that continue Giscours´ ascendency in Margaux and Bordeaux."

Antonio Galloni 94-96 Punkte

"The 2019 Giscours is ripe and extrovert on the nose with exuberant black cherries, blueberry and crushed violets bursting from the glass. This is very seductive. The palate is medium-bodied with a tang of seaweed infusing the black fruit on the entry, segueing into more tarry notes toward the well structured finish. This articulates a sense of completeness that I appreciate. The persistency is impressive. This is a superb, potentially long-term Giscours that may well end up at the top of my banded score."
