The wine is characterised by complex aromas of dark fruits such as blueberries and black cherries, along with hints of liquorice, tobacco and fine wood. On the palate, the wine is elegant, with well-integrated tannins, fresh acidity and a long finish. This vintage is ideal for archiving, but also offers a great experience when consumed now.

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
