"The rich fruitiness of this 80% Merlot wine is immediately apparent at first glance. It comes from a large 116-acre estate on an extension of the Pomerol plateau. Firm tannins as well as generous black plum and berry fruit are well balanced, just needing time to soften and develop. Drink this full-bodied, rich wine from 2018." 91 points out of 100, Wine Enthusiast

Château Siaurac
Château Siaurac was founded in the early 17th century by Mr. Ciorac, after whom the château is named. In 1832, the property was acquired by Pierre Brisson, who later passed it on to his son Benjamin Brisson. Under Brisson's leadership, the château became the largest of its kind in the region.
The vines consist of 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Malbec. The wine ages in French oak barrels for 12 to 14 months, with 20% of the barrels being new.
Since 2014, Château Siaurac has gradually implemented organic and biodynamic farming methods, with official recognition granted in 2020. As of September 2020, the estate is owned by the Suravenir Insurance group
