As with the 2015, the solar nature of the vintage comes through but the fruit is purer and brighter. Sweet and gourmand on the palate with ample red fruit, it's less streamlined and serious than the 2016 but there's vitality and balance. There's approachability but it should age. Drinking Window 2023 - 2033. ... More details

The 2018 Siaurac is bright, plummy and super-inviting. Mocha, spice and floral notes wrap around a core of dense, pliant fruit in this succulent, racy Lalande de Pomerol. I did see some variability in barrel samples, but the best examples were compelling. Tasted three times.

A soft, attractive red with plum and chocolate, as well as some spice and hazelnut undertones. It’s medium-bodied with medium round tannins and a fresh, savory finish. Drink or hold.

Varietal: Red Bordeaux

The Bordeaux region of France consistently enjoys the reputation of being the finest region for wine making in the world. But what is it that makes this area around the Gironde river so special? The secret lies in their ancient and careful blend of no more than six high quality, flavorful and unique grape varietals. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Carménere are all permitted for usage in the production of Bordeaux wines, and the winery carefully considers how to balance the fine points of one varietal against another. Most commonly, Cabernet Sauvignon is used as the main grape varietal, usually with vintners making wines containing upwards of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon grape juices. This varietal lends its big, spicy, fruity flavors and astringent, tannin-heavy character to the mix. Normally, this strong varietal is then tempered and rounded by Merlot, a fleshy, fruity and far lighter bodied grape, containing far fewer tannins and a much brighter flavor The blended wines are normally left to age in oak, where they can continue to work together and produce their wonderful results.

Region: Bordeaux

There are few wine regions in the world with a reputation as glowing and well established as that of the Bordeaux, in France. Situated mainly around the Dordogne and Gironde rivers, Bordeaux makes the most of its humid climate and rich, clay and gravel based soils to grow some of the finest examples of red and white grape varietals on earth. Wineries in this region have been in operation for hundreds of years, and have carefully developed the expertise required for the production of carefully balanced and utterly delicious blended red and white wines, alongside some exceptional single variety bottles. Many of the chateaux found in Bordeaux have become household names, due to their prestige and the excellence of their products, grown with love and dedication by heritage wineries in this beautiful and special region.
