The 2022 Siran is every bit as impressive in bottle as it was en primeur. Ample, rich and imposing, the 2022 has a lot to offer. A blast of dark-toned fruit, new leather, licorice and chocolate makes quite a statement. Siran is quite the extrovert. While it is not the most complex Margaux out there, its immediacy and charm are both notable. 01/2025

The 2022 Siran, bottled in May 2024, offers brambly red fruit with touches of sous-bois, pressed flowers and cedar. It opens nicely in the glass with suggestions of dark chocolate in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and accents of black pepper and clove. This wine surprisingly comes across a little Saint-Julien in style, and is somewhat austere for the first ten minutes. Then the fruit returns, as if playing peek-a-boo. Give this two or three years in bottle. 01/2025

Aromas of minty cassis, herbs and pencil shavings introduce the 2022 Siran, a medium to full-bodied, velvety and lively wine that's seamless and integrated. This is an especially strong effort for this estate. 03/2025

I loved the nose on the 2022 Château Siran, a complex, medium to full-bodied Margaux with plenty of black cherry and plum fruit, some chocolate, violets, and floral nuances, ripe, polished tannins, and a nicely layered, balanced style on the palate. Based on 53% Merlot, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 11% Petit Verdot, raised in 35% new barrels, give bottles a few years and enjoy over the following two decades or so. 02/2025

Remarqué en Primeurs pour ses qualités, ce cru les confirme en bouteilles. Belle couleur sombre et intense. Nez moyennement aromatique, au fruité frais, mais suave. Vin juteux et parfumé à souhait, se développant sur un déroulé noble, à la délicatesse étonnante. Le grain est fin. Ensemble complet et impossible à cracher. 02/2025

The lead-pencil and dark-berry aromas are very persuasive here, and aromatic! Medium to full body with juicy fruit, velvety tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Creamy and pretty. Give it two or three years. Best after 2028. 01/2025
