Château Giscours
In Margaux, Château Giscours is documented from the 16th century and was classified in 1855 as a Troisième Grand Cru Classé. Over time, owners such as Pescatore and the Cruse family shaped its scale and reputation; in the modern era, the Albada Jelgersma family brought renewed investment and vision.
The wine’s character is rooted in broad Graves terraces where Cabernet Sauvignon ripens with finesse; Merlot and Petit Verdot add dimension. Parcel thinking, selective hand harvesting and controlled extraction aim for Margaux silk rather than sheer volume.
Élevage in French oak barriques is calibrated for integration, keeping floral lift and precise tannin architecture in focus. Giscours therefore connects historic grandeur with contemporary execution—an authentic Margaux story translated into texture, balance and ageing potential.Château Giscours
