The 2016 Sirène de Giscours is the second wine of Château Giscours, 3rd Grand Cru Classé de Margaux, in one of its very best vintages. It is made from a blend of grapes from vines younger than the grand vin, but the vinification and ageing benefit from the same attention.

A beautiful Margaux, elegant, supple and fruity, which offers intense aromas of red and black fruits, violets and cedar notes on the nose and very silky tannins on the palate. It can be enjoyed today and offers an ageing potential of at least 15 years in this great vintage.
