Beautiful 1966 Ch Giscours


1966 Château Giscours;

Low neck will, ruby with brick rim. Floral, cedar, cassis, fruity, perfumed, intense, bell peppers and strawberries. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fleshy texture, elegant, plums, ripe cherries in the finish, even minerals, very long length. 93

Broadbent: Several notes. Never seems to have shed its initial greenness, my best note February 86. Excellent nose. Dry, lean **

Seems to me it has now shed it's troublesome youth and I do not recognize much of Broadbent's notes from 1986. It seems to have needed an extra 25 years of cellaring!
