Fruity & Powerful

Château Siran

Red wine | Margaux AC

A stature that needs no classification
Delicately scented, both powerful and subtle, it offers a complex nose, with notes of blackberry, flowers and spices. Very tasty and juicy on the palate, this red wine is enhanced by silky tannins and a long finish. Confident of its qualities, Château Siran quietly follows its own path. After declining the invitation to be part of the first classification of Bordeaux wines in 1855, he withdrew from the hassles linked to the Crus Bourgeois a century and a half later!

Decanter Tight and concentrated fruits, this is knitted down right now, more muscular than many in the appellation and will need a good few years to soften. Clear dark spice, the Petit Verdot is pulling its weight and making its presence felt not just in the fruit quality but the sappy nature of the tannins, springly tightly shut on the finish. Drinking Window 2026 - 2042.

James Suckling A dense, beautifully integrated red with blackberry, blueberry and chocolate character. It's full-bodied with ripe tannins and a fresh, focused finish. Shows lots of blue fruit and flowers at the end. Siran does it again, after a gorgeous 2018.

Yves Beck Purplish purple. So much freshness and fruity intensity in this very inviting bouquet. It displays aromas of blackcurrant and raspberries which are followed by spicy notes. Racy attack, juicy but also slightly creamy. Siran is fresh, delicious, balanced and fine. Lingering fruity finish. A delicious and crunchy wine that will be difficult to resist, even if the acid structure, commonly with the tannins, gives it great aging potential. 2024-2037.
