La Sirène de Giscours 2023

Classified as a Third Grand Cru Classé in the 1855 classification, Château Giscours is one of the iconic estates of the Margaux appellation. Its vineyards, set on deep gravel soils, combined with meticulous expertise and precision viticulture, produce wines renowned for their elegance, finesse and remarkable ageing potential.
