avis_word CHÂTEAU GISCOURS Labarde

We did a tasting here and it was magnificent. Our guide (I can't remember her name) did a tremendous job explaining the history of the chateaux and the wines we were able to sample. I loved the Haut Medoc 2016.

Tout justement magnifique.
Un accueil irréprochable.

Super vignoble!

Prachtig, heerlijk gegeten. Wel vooraf regelen.

I would give 6 stars if I could - this was an amazing place to stay and great value for money. The gentleman who gave us our tour and looked after us was excellent!

Went for a wine tasting and lunch. The lunch was as elegant as any lunch I’ve had and the food was phenomenal. The wine tasting was very professional and interesting. The grounds are gorgeous.

We did a vertical tasting and was blown away. The wine was amazing, our guide was very knowledgeable. She did a great job teaching us about the wine while making it feel like a natural conversation. It was pouring rain all day but we still had an incredible time. I highly recommend booking a tour and tasting! Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Expérience incroyable avec Mickaël notre guide très intéressant, pédagogique et passionné de son métier. Belle visite privative du Château Giscours. Nous avons pu, en plus de la dégustation se balader dans le domaine. Très agreable.
Pour visiter ou flâner = à recommander

Cadre très opposant

Visite pendant les portes ouvertes.
Les bâtisses sont très belles.

Visite à l'occasion des journées portes ouvertes. Accueil sympathique dans la magnifique cour. Le château est splendide, au coeur d'un parc verdoyant.

Cadre magnifique.. accueil sympathique et sommelier très compétent., bonne journée

Château Giscours was our second wine tasting of the day on the Left Bank, and it was a fantastic visit. The estate's grounds are extensive, encompassing over 400 hectares, though only about half of that area is dedicated to vines. The rest of the property supports the château's farm, which will eventually supply the hotel and restaurant currently under construction in the original château.

Our guide, Michael Sanders, was both entertaining and knowledgeable, having worked at the winery for over a decade. Some highlights of the tour included their gravity-fed processing system and the circa 1950s cement containers used in their winemaking process. These mid-century tanks are slated for replacement with updated cement containers once the restaurant and hotel renovations are complete. However, if you visit before the upgrades are finished, this glimpse into winemaking history is well worth seeing.

Michael guided us through a vertical tasting of two Grand Cru Classé wines and an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) wine. The wines were excellent, showcasing classic Left Bank hallmarks with a surprising brightness for their age. The tasting highlighted the depth and balance characteristic of this region’s wines.

As an added surprise, Michael revealed another talent—he’s a practicing magician! We weren’t aware of it beforehand, but Château Giscours offers a magic-based wine-tasting experience led by Michael. While we didn’t book this unique option, Michael treated us to several magic tricks since it was a quiet day. This unexpected twist added a layer of fun and novelty to our visit, making it one of the most memorable tastings we’ve ever had. The combination of wine and magic, despite what may seem to be an ostensible incongruity, worked surprisingly well to enhance the overall experience.

The entire experience lasted nearly two hours and was thoroughly enjoyable. One other noteworthy aspect: we visited during the off-season and had difficulty finding a taxi afterward. Michael went above and beyond, calling a contact he had at a local cab company to ensure we made our train back to Bordeaux. This exceptional customer service may well have saved us from scrambling for last-minute lodging in the French countryside—a gesture we deeply appreciated.

Château Giscours offers a combination of history, hospitality, and unique touches like Michael’s magic, that make it well worth the visit.

Ce fut une magnifique expérience d'avoir travaillé avec ce groupe professionnel avec un haut niveau humain, un très bon traitement des travailleurs, j'espère avoir l'opportunité de faire partie de Giscours dans le futur,

Endroit idyllique pour un petit pique nique très bien garni ! Les produits sont de qualité et l'accueil est chaleureux ..

La petite promenade autour du château vaut vraiment le coup. Je recommande vivement, merci Alexia pour votre amabilité et votre professionnalisme et bien sûr encore tout mes compliments au chef

Great tasting. Helpful fun staff.

Dégustation de 3 vins dans un cadre surprenant avec du personnel au top ! Visite libre du parc du château ou nous avons profitez du calme et de la beauté du lieu. Magnifique promenade en pleine nature. Nous y reviendrons pour y passer une nuit .

Un excellent moment, une superbe présentation du château et cette dégustation privative faite avec passion et professionnalisme !!
Je recommande !

Au cœur des vignes d’un cru prestigieux un espace idéal pour une réception réussie .

Château Giscours ist ein Weingut im Médoc. Dort kann man Besichtigungen mit Weinverköstigungen buchen. Der Wein ist weltbekannt und exzellent. Die organisierten Weinproben sind informativ und man sehr gute Jahrgänge probieren. Das Weingut liegt in einer großen Parkanlage, die alleine schon sehenswert ist. Unbedingt einen Besuch wert.

Accueil décevant à la boutique.

Had a fantastic visit led by Eva - thank you so much for a great time and laughter! Absolutely stellar wines, the quality is truly outstanding. The Chateau and the cellar facilities are simply beautiful. A visit and tasting are highly recommended!
