Château SIRAN
Red
- 2020
- Margaux
Even though it is not classified, Siran has been in competition with the classified growths of Margaux for the last ten years, with wines that are at once delicate, firm and full-bodied with age. Aligning successes since 2015, Siran is now at its best, 2020 being its best vintage ever and hailed as such by the Revue du Vin de France: « réussite majeure pour le cru », rated 95/100.
The label for the 2020 vintage, signed by Franco-Chilean artist Federica Matta, represents an ode to life (and to vines).
The 2020 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2024): 95/100 “The 2020 fulfills all its promises and will establish itself as the best Siran we know. A wine that's very much in place, taut and precise, with great length and breed in the tannins.”
Vinous (N. Martin - December 2022): 92/100 “The 2020 Siran sees the reintroduction of the artistic series label. It offers scents of black cherry and wild strawberry, cedar and pencil lead. Slight marine scents appear with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a powdery texture, very well balanced, notes of white pepper and tobacco towards the classic finish.”

The label for the 2021 vintage, signed by British artist Peter Soriano, celebrates the start of space tourism and the exploration of the planet Mars.
The 2021 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 “With all the Margaux elegance we've come to expect from this vintage. Already seductive, with its velvety side, it will evolve over a decade with no problem.”
Vinous (Neal Martin - November 2023): 91/100 “The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, more black fruit from the 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, touches of graphite and cedar emerging towards the finish. It will drink earlier than other vintages, but it's worth discovering given its price.”
