Description
Neal Martin: Tasted at the Chateau Giscours vertical, the 2002
Ch漮eau Giscours is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40%
Merlot picked between October 1 and 15. There remains that almost
Pomerol-like personality on the nose, quite perfumed and floral
with sage and burnt toast scents tincturing the dark berry fruit.
With continued aeration, there is a just a hint of rooibos. The
palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, quite ferrous in the
mouth and lightly spiced. It does not deliver the same precision as
the 2001, although there is decent length here. It does not offer
great length, but for the vintage, this should be considered a
modest success.
