A wine in the style of Cabernet Sauvignon is classy and remarkably precise.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Giscours gives up aromas of cassis, chocolate, earth, tar, pepper and hoisin with touches of flowers and a meaty nuance. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy with a great core and a long finish.
