Château Siran 2021

Pretty, wild floral notes on the nose alongside fresh raspberry. Supple and agile, this has a lovely ease to it – not showy or too loud, but gentle and calm, delivering chalky, creamy red fruits with soft, fine, graphite-edged tannins. Pleasing acidity gives a persistent if not totally lively lift throughout, and this has an unfussy charm with lovely crushed stone salinity on the finish. No drop in the mid-palate, but lightly flavoured with gentle persistency. Easy to enjoy. Tasted twice. Drinking Window: 2026-2039. Score – 92. (Georgina Hindle, decanter.com)
