2015 Petite Sirène de Château Giscours, Bordeaux
2015 Petite Sirène de Château Giscours, Bordeaux
Of high quality and affordable, Petite Sirène 2015 comes from the acclaimed Château Giscours - that Third Growth from Margaux with impressive gates.
As you know 2015 is a tip-top Bordeaux vintage and this delicious effort drinks beautifully now. The colour is dark red and to taste there is good red and black fruit with no hard edges and all with incredible ripeness and a long smooth finish. Far superior and less expensive than Margaux de Brane that seems to be doing the rounds again in this part of the country.
Tasting notes:
The wine is a cabernet sauvignon and merlot blend with a rich, round body full of clean, lively and ripe cherry and blackcurrants. On the finish, the wine lingers, with a tinge of spice and very well-balanced tannins.
Critic review:
"From a corking vintage, its effectively the 3rd wine of Château Giscours (the much-loved Third Growth from Margaux) made by the same winemaking team. A blend of 70 per cent Merlot and 30 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon, its richly flavoured and succulent with red and dark berry fruit, whispers of vanilla and spice and a long, mouth-filling finish. Its an extremely approachable entry level claret with impeccable pedigree and reassuringly accessible price. In short, it's perfect."
