Haut-Médoc Giscours is a convivial, fresh wine for your enjoyment. It reveals the beautiful aromatic radiance that forms part of the Giscours identity.
Our vineyard workers meticulously cultivate our Haut-Médoc vines (60 ha in total) all year round in keeping with the same philosophy. Balance and finesse remain key. The terroir, a mixture of fine gravel and sand, ensures a hugely delicate wine.
With abundant fruit, delicate tannins and a hugely fresh finish, this is a wine of which we are very proud, and which fully deserves its place alongside Giscours’s top wines.
