Chateau Giscours' kosher cuvee - a Margaux 3rd Growth from the Left Bank gravels, Cabernet-led, the appellation that defined perfumed Bordeaux.
Mood: The cellar bottle that doesn't come out twice a year. The classed-growth Bordeaux that earns its place on the Yom Tov first night.
Our sommelier says
Deep ruby with garnet at the rim. The nose is Margaux at its most recognizable - violet, blackcurrant, cedar, graphite, a wisp of pipe tobacco. Cabernet Sauvignon leads on the structural spine; Merlot rounds the mid-palate; Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot add the perfumed lift and dark color the Margaux gravels are known for. Full-bodied, finely tannic, French oak fully absorbed. Long, perfumed, layered finish. Decant an hour for current drinking; built to age a decade-plus.
Tasting notes
Violet, blackcurrant, cedar, graphite, pipe tobacco. Full body, fine structured tannin, dense fruit core, perfumed lift. Long, perfumed, layered, age-worthy.
Food pairing
Standing rib roast, lamb chops, slow-braised short ribs, aged hard cheese (after the wait), Yom Tov seudah.
