Comment

The second wine of the Grand Cru Classé Château Giscours, La Sirène de Giscours remains faithful to the spirit of the Grand Vin with which it shares the terroir. Viticulture and winemaking are carried out with the same level of requirement while offering a more fruity and approachable character in its youth. Ideally located on beautiful Garonne gravel lands, the Cru Classé de Margaux has 100 hectares of vineyard: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, with a complement of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Run by the Albada Jelgersma family since 1995, the estate continues its quest for excellence thanks to the dynamism of Alexander van Beek.

Tasting

La Sirène de Giscours fully expresses the style of the property showing at the same time depth and indulgence. Characterized by an intense color, crunchy fruit, a dense and soft taste at the same time, it is a real wine of pleasure.
