Note di degustazione
The 2009 Giscours has almost exactly the same nose as the last bottles, with hints of curry leaf infusing the black fruit. It still leans a little towards Saint-Julien in style, maybe with some Brettanomyces. Quite classic in style, the palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and graphite-infused black fruit. It's taut and fresh with a persistent finish. Excellent.

The rich texture is clear visually with its inky plum colour, and this has plenty of ripe damson and black cherry fruit on the attack. Bitter chocolate and smoked turmeric adds opulence, although the tannins remain tight and this is a little abrupt on the finish. Less suave than many 2009s right now, although clear underlying power. First year with Denis Dubourdieu as consultant, 50% new oak for ageing. Harvest September 22 to October 13.
Round and polished and a pleasant drink but obviously simpler than most of the wines in this collecion of 2009 bordeaux. (JR)
