Château Giscours, Grand Cru Classé vineyard in Labarde, France

The Château Giscours estate encompasses 200 hectares with 87 hectares of vineyards planted on gravel-rich soil in the Margaux appellation of Bordeaux.

The estate's legacy began in 1330 with a fortified keep, later transforming into a wine producer and receiving its third growth classification in 1855.

The wine production combines traditional Bordeaux methods with precise grape selection, resulting in wines that express the characteristics of the Margaux terroir.

Visitors can stay in three renovated rooms within the Old Stables, offering direct access to vineyard tours and wine tasting experiences.

The property maintains an active cricket club that participates in the French National League, combining French wine heritage with British sporting traditions.

Bordeaux wine estates: châteaux, cellars, tastings

The wine estates of Bordeaux spread across the Gironde department and produce wines under more than 60 appellations. The châteaux combine winemaking traditions with modern cellar techniques. Many properties open their doors to visitors, offering tours of vineyards, fermentation rooms, and barrel cellars. The grand estates of the Médoc, such as Château Margaux, Château Latour, or Château Mouton Rothschild, rank among the most recognized addresses in the region. In Saint-Émilion, châteaux cluster around the medieval village. The Entre-deux-Mers area features numerous smaller family operations. Wine routes traverse landscapes of vine rows and historic buildings. The architecture of the châteaux ranges from medieval fortresses to 18th and 19th-century residences. Some estates have commissioned contemporary cellars from architects like Norman Foster or Jean Nouvel. Tasting rooms allow visitors to sample different vintages and blends. Many domains also organize oenology workshops and receptions in their vineyards.
