Château Siran Margaux AOP

Trotz seiner bemerkenswerten Qualität und seines hervorragenden Terroirs im Herzen von Margaux wurde Château Siran nur als Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel klassifiziert. Dies geht auf die Entscheidung der Familie Léo Barbier Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts zurück, die Aufnahme in die Classification Bonapartite abzulehnen. Dennoch wird Château Siran in Margaux als hervorragendes Weingut geschätzt. PRESSE 94-95 Punkte James Suckling Wow. This is really well done with plenty of al-dente fruit character, bright acidity and firm, fine tannins that are already well integrated. Medium-bodied. Crunchy. 91 Punkte Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (William Kelley) Exhibiting aromas of dark berries and sweet new oak, the 2023 Siran is medium to full-bodied, dense and youthfully structured. It's a solid effort. 93 Punkte Falstaff (Peter Moser) Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zartes Nugat, schwarze Beeren, reife Zwetschken, feine Edelholznuancen. Komplex, stoffig, kraftvoller Stil, zart nach Schokolade und Dörrobst, runde Tannine, bleibt haften, verfügt über Entwicklungspotenzial. 92-94 Punkte Vinous (Neal Martin) The 2023 Siran, picked September 11 to 29, has a well-defined bouquet that is not as complex as the previous vintage. It is focused and delineated, with black fruit mixed with graphite and melted tar, almost Saint-Julien in style. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, quite minerally and lively without the depth of the 2022, yet rather elegant and refined on the finish. This constitutes a very gracious Margaux and as I tried second and third bottles towards the end of my trip, it just seemed to get better and better.
