Reviews
James Suckling 92-93
Bright and vivid second wine of Giscours shows such resounding energy with lots of blueberry and currant character. Shows its majority of merlot here. Fine and polished.
by JS, James Suckling , 2017
Technical Details
Ageing
French barrels. 30% new oak. 12 months of ageing in barrels.
Harvest
From September 26th to October 20th.
Just like Chateau Giscours, with whom it shares the Terroir, our second wine is envisioned in the vineyard in the
Spring by our technical team and crafted in the cellar to reveal its full identity and elegance. Viticulture and
winemaking are done with the same level of precision, nevertheless La Sirene de Giscours is focused on a more
approachable, fruiter and seductive style.
Tasting notes
La Sirene de Giscours 2016 shows perfectly this pursuit of style and will be enjoyable both in its youth and
after some years in bottle.
Vinification
Optical and manual sorting. Concrete and stainless-steel tanks. Maceration 30 jours at 28C.
