JAMES SUCKLING: "Attractive berry fruit here with spices and orange peel undertones. Medium- to full-bodied, toned and steady with compact tannin structure. Deep. Long finish with stony minerality. Most structured yet fine Siran I have tasted for a long time."

DECANTER: "A delightful Siran in 2022 that manages to give the density of the vintage while remaining joyful and extremely drinkable. Textured tannins make the first impact, coating the mouth and giving a touch of seriousness to the profile before a mouthwatering succulence comes in, lifting the strawberry, raspberry and blackcurrant fruit. The soft fleshiness gives structure but this remains polished and quite sleek. A lovely Margaux to look out for with detail and drive."

FALSTAFF: "Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Rote Kirschen, etwas Lakritze und Orangenzesten, floraler Touch ist unterlegt. Saftig, elegant, süße Frucht, gute Frische, bleibt haften, zartes Nugat im Abgang, gute Länge, sicheres Reifepotenzial, bereits früh zugänglich."

LISA PERROTTI-BROWN: „Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2022 Siran rolls out with expressive notes of blackcurrant cordial, preserved plums, and stewed black cherries, followed by suggestions of sauteed herbs and forest floor. The medium to full-bodied palate is concentrated and intense, with approachable, rounded tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with an herbal lift."

JEB DUNNUCK: "Dense purple-hued with lots of darker, almost blue fruits as well as spicy oak and chocolate, the 2022 Château Siran is medium to full-bodied, nicely balanced, has plenty of mid-palate density, and fine tannins. This classic, elegant Margaux will need 4-6 years of cellaring and keep for 15-20 years. It's another undeniable success in the Margaux appellation."
