La Sirène de Giscours Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend

2020 vintage. Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon (70%), with an unusually high percentage of Cabernet Franc for the left bank (15%), 10% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot. Another excellent second wine at less than half the price of the grand vin. Seriously concentrated black fruits, spices, fresh acidity, ripe tannin and very good length. Drinking well now, but this should age beautifully for another 10 years.

Well done

2018 vintage. 66 Cabernet Sauvignon, 13 Merlot and 21 Cabernet Franc.

Hey Y'all.

Dark red. Inviting nose and medium full palate of black cranberry, cassis, and red plum. Juicy (medium plus) acidity from entry to medium long, palate continuing finish. Medium tannins that assert more as time and air pass. An excellent vintage of an excellent second label Margaux from Giscours. Consumate food wine that's upscale enough for filet mignon but priced for burgers off the grill, and will complement everything in between. Drink now through 2036.

This is a delicious second wine from this Chateau.

Full bodied with medium acidity and dry on the palate with a great nose.

Showing blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, cedar, vanilla, spices, espresso, cigar box, tobacco leaf, graphite, light bell pepper, peppercorn, earth and sweet black tea.

A beautiful wine from a great vintage. Very enjoyable with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Decanter gave it 86 points. I think they missed it this time.

Needs 3 hours to open up properly and show the complexity. It's definitely worth the wait.

Feels like a Napa Bordeaux blend right out of the bottle, but then it changes as it opens up.

Good by itself or with food. I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

Uau. What a treat. I love this aged Margaux

A very delicate Margaux... all about finesse!

With Boeuf Bourguignon and a platter of cheese from the mountains. La Sirène is always excellent: all the Margaux characteristics in a simple, easy to drink package.
