Chateau Giscours 2010 Margaux 3rd Growth Bordeaux Premium Wine Review

Chateau Giscours was originally a fortified property in the 14th century. It became a winery in 1552 when it was purchased by Pierre de Lhomme. The estate was originally known as the noble house of "Guyscoutz", which is where the name Giscours originated. The winery has gone through a number of ownership changes. Between 1954-1995, it was owned by the Tari family. In 1995, the winery was purchased by Eric Albada Jelgersma, who passed away in 2018. It is now managed by his children, Dennis, Derk & Valerie. Mr. Jelgersma brought in Alexander van Beek as managing director in 1995 and the winery has achieved a superior level of consistency since 2000. In 1998, Chateau Giscours was involved in a blending scandal where they admitted to using grapes from the Haut Medoc vineyards in their 2nd wine. Chateau Giscours as a large winery with 102 hectares vineyard which is planted with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc. One of the key decisions made by Alexander van Beek is to replant the vineyard with more Cabernet Sauvignong grapes (previously more than 50% of the vineyard was planted with Merlot grapes). They own another 62 hectares in Haut Medoc but these grapes are not used in the Grand Cru or 2nd wine. About 20% of the vineyard is biodynamically farmed and about 25,000 cases of the Grand Cru is produced each year. Giscours' label has a mermaid (‘sirène’ in French) at the top of the label. This is why the 2nd wine is called La Sirène de Giscours. The 2010 vintage is a blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Merlot. It is aged in oak barrels for 17 months (50% new oak).
