Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Sunday, April 2, 2023 - Ten 2019 Left Bank Offerings: Over two days.

Loud bouquet, more Saint-Julien like than Margaux. It features purple berries, violets, dark chocolate, spent espresso grounds, pipe tobacco, savory herbs, and mineral ores.

Bold attack! Solidly expansive middle...if somewhat underwhelming for Giscours. The back drops off rather precipitously. The wine finishes with a restrained bite.

All that is present comes of nicely. What it lacks, however, disappoints. This will evolve over the next decade, or longer, and might improve. Unlikely, however, to achieve greatness.
