Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours 2021 Haut-Médoc, Frankrijk

Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours 2021 is de 3e wijn van Château Giscours, het historische Margaux domein met de status 3e Grand Cru Classé sinds 1855. Deze halve fles van 0,375L komt uit de historische Haut-Médoc percelen van Giscours en wordt gemaakt door hetzelfde technische team als de grote wijnen van het château. Daardoor krijg je veel van de Giscours signatuur, fijne tannines, aromatische helderheid en klassieke Bordeaux structuur, in een toegankelijker formaat.

Wijngaarden en regio

De wijn komt uit de Haut-Médoc, net buiten de appellatie Margaux, waar Giscours al meer dan 30 jaar eigen historische percelen gebruikt voor deze cuvée.

• Ligging / Herkomst: De wijngaarden liggen in de Haut-Médoc, op historische terroirs van Château Giscours. Deze ligging geeft de wijn een duidelijke Médoc basis, terwijl de verfijnde Giscours stijl herkenbaar blijft.

• Wijngaard: Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours wordt gemaakt van 60 ha wijngaard in productie. Die schaal geeft het team veel ruimte om streng te selecteren en de wijn consistent in de stijl van het huis te houden.

• Bodem: De stokken staan op fijne kiezelbodems. Deze arme, goed drainerende bodems passen uitstekend bij Cabernet Sauvignon en helpen de wijn aan structuur, frisheid en lengte.

• Wijngaard & oogst: De oogst voor de 2021 vintage liep van 27 september tot 13 oktober. Door per perceel te werken kon het fruit op het juiste moment worden binnengehaald.

Vinificatie en rijping

De vinificatie van Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours 2021 is precies en klassiek, met nadruk op fruitzuiverheid, structuur en drinkbaarheid.

• Oogst & selectie: Na de oogst worden de druiven handmatig en optisch gesorteerd. Dat zorgt voor een schone basis en helpt de frisse, energieke stijl van de 2021 vintage scherp te houden.

• Vergisting: De vinificatie vindt plaats in betonnen en roestvrijstalen cuves. Beton geeft rust en textuur, terwijl roestvrijstaal de heldere fruitexpressie ondersteunt.

• Maceratie: De schilweking duurt 35 dagen bij 28 °C. Deze langere extractie geeft kleur, grip en kruidige diepte aan de wijn.

• Rijping / Houtopvoeding: De wijn rijpt 12 maanden in barriques. Die opvoeding rondt de tannines af en voegt subtiele tonen van ceder, specerijen en lichte toast toe.

Druivensamenstelling

De 2021 vintage bestaat uit 2 klassieke druivenrassen van de linkeroever van Bordeaux.

• 61% Cabernet Sauvignon – Haut-Médoc: Cabernet Sauvignon vormt de ruggengraat van de wijn en geeft cassis, grip, lengte en de herkenbare Médoc structuur.

• 39% Merlot – Haut-Médoc: Merlot brengt ronding, rijp rood fruit en een soepelere aanzet in de blend.

Proefnotities en serveertips

Diep robijnrood in het glas, met aroma’s van braam, wilde aardbei, cassis, blauwe bes, steranijs, ceder en zachte specerijen. De smaak is medium-bodied en levendig, met frisse tannines, donker fruit, kruidige spanning en een sappige afdronk met een vleugje Margaux achtige elegantie.

• Serveertemperatuur: Serveer Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours 2021 op 16–18 °C, zodat het fruit, de kruidigheid en de tannines mooi in balans komen.

• Gerechten: Schenk bij entrecote, lamskotelet, kalfsgebraad, eendenborst, paddenstoelen uit de oven, stoofgerechten met rund of harde kazen zoals Comté en oude Gouda.

Bekroningen

• 91–92/100, James Suckling (2021 vintage): Een sterke beoordeling voor een klassieke Haut-Médoc waarin frisheid, structuur en de Cabernet Sauvignon basis duidelijk naar voren komen.

• 90/100, Decanter (2021 vintage): Een mooie score voor deze 2021 vintage, met erkenning voor de frisse, elegante en toegankelijke stijl van Le Haut-Médoc de Giscours.

• 89–91/100, Neal Martin, Vinous (2021 vintage): Geprezen om zijn intense aroma’s van braam, wilde aardbei en blauw fruit, met steranijs en een soepele, rijpe finale.

• 88/100, Wine Advocate (2021 vintage): Een nette beoordeling voor een 2021 Bordeaux waarin balans, drinkbaarheid en klassieke Médoc structuur belangrijker zijn dan pure kracht.

Meer informatie over Château Giscours

Château Giscours gaat terug tot de 16e eeuw en werd in 1855 erkend als 3e Grand Cru Classé binnen Margaux. Sinds 1995 gaf Eric Albada Jelgersma het domein een sterke kwaliteitsimpuls door de wijngaard te herstructureren en de gebouwen te vernieuwen. Vandaag zetten Dennis, Derk en Valérie Albada Jelgersma deze lijn voort, samen met algemeen directeur Alexander van Beek, waardoor Giscours zowel in Margaux als in zijn historische Haut-Médoc percelen steeds herkenbaarder is geworden.

Steamy with Some Good Character Development, But a Little Cliche and Unbelievable
Format: Kindle
This book tells the story of Grace and (Johnny) Logan, a couple who hook up right away and then fall in love as Logan has to make up for the fact that he initially rejects the idea of getting more serious with Grace. The plot is pretty flimsy, although there is decent development of outside conflict, including Logan's alcoholic father and his struggles with his potential hockey career. There are some very steamy scenes--lots of them, actually-- and some cute moments, but in the end, this isn't a particularly memorable story. To be honest, I have a love/hate relationship with this series (I read the first one, too). On one hand, I think Elle Kennedy is a good writer with a flair for dialogue who knows how to script a steamy love scene. She also does a solid job for the most part in fleshing out her main characters, even if supporting characters often seem like walking cliches ("The Overprotective Dad" vs "Alcoholic Dad"; "Rebellious Best Friend" vs. "Straight-Laced Best Friend"). There are a lot of genuinely funny lines, too, even if they're sometimes of the stereotypical frat boy variety (as a lot of the characters are stereotypical frat boys). Speaking of stereotypical frat boys, this dovetails into what I hate about this series. I have to admit to not being a fan of the Greek system in general so that may be a bias that's affecting my reading experience, but there's something over-the-top and a little disconcerting about the way Kennedy depicts both the sex-fueled parties and the conversations between the guys about their sex lives. I'm not saying her portrayal of Greek life is entirely unrealistic, but the scenes have a cliched, obvious feel, and although she means to set a sexy tone, there's something icky about the way these guys get whatever they want, whenever they want it (and it's not just sex on demand, but apparently amazing sex with hot women on demand). All the guys are gorgeous horn dogs who get drunk but never seem to be anything less than smoking hot and cool. Oh, and apparently, all this partying doesn't negatively impact their training regimen). Most of the girls throw themselves at them, either alone or in pairs. Plus, in both books, I had some trouble believing that the heroines really hung out at frat parties and knew the athletes by name. Both Hannah and Grace (and even Ramona, for that matter) struck me as young women more apt to avoid frat parties and maybe hang with the multitude of other non-Greek members who populate a college campus and host off-campus parties. (To that end, how about a hook-up between one of these athletes/frat boys and a young women who has no interest in an athlete/frat boys? I went to a big school, and at least two thirds of the campus probably couldn't identify one athlete by name.) Ultimately, I enjoyed aspects of this book and liked the main characters by the end of the novel (Logan wasn't that appealing for about half of the story, but I warmed to him eventually). And it definitely is more expertly plotted and well written than a lot of other NA novels out there. But if this series is to continue, I'd like to see the formula shaken up. Grade: C+

I finally took the plunge. A satisfying star read
Format: Kindle
What a chicken I was to leave off reading this book for YEARS because I couldn’t cope with Logan’s “situation” (no spoilers!) & how it could possibly be sorted in his own book. Oh ye of little faith! Elle Kennedy isn’t a #1 author by CHANCE! Oh no, that is TALENT baby! She took the end of book one, ran with it, then flipped that mother sucker on its head to dig deeper into Logan and learn about Grace. These two were definitely made for each other. The story spans from one school year to the next and we get lots of context too. There are some side characters that I’m not sure o know why they were added as they didn’t add to the story and a particular side character that really needed an ending as she just disappeared. Why was she so unhappy? What was she getting into off page? Was she ever forgiven? The s story seemed to end abruptly, and that threw me off a bit. I kept going like I was gonna flip another page, and that was the end! Besides the fact of feeling like there are so many things left unsaid this was a good book. Definitely liked book one more but that could also be because the show just came out on prime but nahh, I loved to book one even a decade ago, and it’s still amazing to this day! The hard part of this was the female narrator on the portions when I listened…Lorelei Avalon, she was NOT CAST properly in my opinion at all. She’s not a bad narrator, she’s just not suited, even remotely, for a late teens early 20-year-old college student. Her voice is more for characters late 40s early 50s in my opinion. I’m glad on book 3. It looks like we changed the narrator so I hope to mostly listen to that one. As always, Lee Samuels did a phenomenal job. He’s been in the game for a while, so maybe that’s what helps make it right for him. But he definitely knew how to change the nuances of his voice to suit whatever character he was reading at that time. All in all, this was a really good book that I’m sad. I waited so long to read. Thanks to campus diaries coming out on TV? I’m ready to finally finish up this series! Book 3 here I come!!

🎧
Format: Paperback
The start of this book had me nervous but I ended up really loving this book! I loved how aware Logan was to what he was doing to Grace and stopped it even though it hurt to read. I loved that Grace made him WORK for her forgiveness and some parts were even SO funny. I loved all four of the guys and their great banter. My sweet baby Logan really was going through it in his personal life and his story resonated so much with me. I cried multiple times while reading and cried happy tears at the ending. It was perfect and exactly how I hoped it would end. 🎧 The narrators did a fantastic job with the dual narration.
