S de Siran 2018, hailing from the prestigious Margaux appellation, is a delightfully expressive wine that beautifully showcases its terroir. The wine opens with an inviting aroma of fresh red and black fruits, like cherries and blackcurrants, intertwined with floral notes of lilac and a hint of peppery spice. As you taste, the vibrant fruit flavors are complemented by a subtle earthiness and smooth tannins, creating a well-balanced and medium-bodied profile. The finish is elegant and persistent, with a pleasing touch of minerality.
The S de Siran, the deuxième vin of Siran, is not usually sold en primeur. It offers dried violet petals on the nose, a melange of red and black fruit, the oak nicely integrated. The palate is smooth and quite fleshy, well balanced with sappy black fruit on the finish that leaves you with a pepper aftertaste. Give this a couple of years in bottle.
The 2016 S de Siran is a blend of 58% Merlot and 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, this Deuxieme Vin actually not released during en primeur. It offers light black, slightly earthy fruit on the nose that need to show a touch more vigor once in bottle. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, perhaps just a little rustic in style, but there is good body here and it should drink well for 4-5 years after bottling.
The S de Siran 2019, hailing from the Margaux appellation in Bordeaux, France, is a captivating red blend that exudes elegance and complexity. On the palate, this wine reveals a harmonious balance of ripe blackberry and cassis, intertwined with subtle hints of violet and a touch of oak. The tannins are silky and well-integrated, contributing to a smooth and refined texture. The aroma complements the taste, with layers of dark fruit mingling with earthy undertones and a whisper of spice.

Chateau Siran is a family-owned winery located in the prestigious Margaux appellation of Bordeaux, France. With a history dating back to the 14th century, the estate has been in the hands of the Miailhe family since 1859 and is currently managed by Edouard and Sophie Miailhe, the fifth generation of the family.

The estate covers 35 hectares of prime vineyard land, with the majority of the vineyards planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot grapes. The vines are meticulously cared for using sustainable practices, with a focus on maintaining the unique terroir of the Margaux appellation.

Chateau Siran has a reputation for producing high-quality, elegant wines that are a true reflection of their terroir. The wines are known for their balance, complexity, and aging potential, making them highly sought after by wine enthusiasts and collectors alike.

In addition to their flagship wine, Chateau Siran also produces a second wine called S de Siran, which is made from younger vines and provides a more approachable introduction to the estate's style.

The Margaux appellation is renowned for its gravelly soils, which provide excellent drainage and contribute to the distinctive character of the wines produced in the region. The climate in Margaux is also ideal for grape growing, with warm summers and mild winters, allowing for a long, slow ripening period.

Chateau Siran is classified as a Margaux Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel, a designation that recognizes the estate's consistent quality over the years. This classification is only given to a select group of wineries in the Medoc region of Bordeaux, making it a significant achievement for Chateau Siran.

In addition to their exceptional wines, Chateau Siran also offers a charming guest house and wine tourism experiences, including tours and tastings. This allows visitors to experience the rich history and traditions of the estate firsthand and gain a deeper understanding of the winemaker.

Bordeaux, in the southwest of France, needs little introduction as one of the world's most famous, prestigious and prolific wine regions. The majority of Bordeaux wines (nearly 90 percent of production volume) are the dry, medium- and full-bodied red Bordeaux Blends that established its reputation.

The finest (and most expensive) of these are the wines from the great châteaux of the Haut-Médoc and the Right Bank appellations Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. The former is focused (at the top level) on Cabernet Sauvignon, the latter pair on on Merlot.

The legendary reds are complemented by high-quality white wines based on Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. These range from dry whites to challenge the best from the Burgundy region (Pessac-Léognan is particularly renowned) to the sweet, botrytized nectars of Sauternes.
