92 Points | International Wine Cellar , January 2012

(55% cabernet sauvignon and 45% merlot; 31 g/l dry extract; 13.4% alcohol):  Good full ruby-red.  Perfumed aromas of cassis, violet, shoe polish, tar and smoke.  Sweet, ripe and luscious, with earthy underbrush and blackberry flavors lingering impressively on the aftertaste.  A very fleshy, ripe Giscours that remains precise and light on its feet thanks to harmonious acidity.  Lovely wine.
