2023 La Sirène de Giscours

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend more

5/4/2024 - Jeff Leve wrote: 90 points

Flowers and black cherries get the wine going in the nose and on the palate. The wine is fresh, vibrant, chewy, and energetic, with a nice blast of spicy, black cherries, and peppery currants that show in the endnote. Drink from 2026-2038.

Nice, drinking now, Margaux. Not overly complex, but smooth tannins and good acidity. Nice dark berry fruit. Not much secondary. Goes well with steak.

Inte fullt utvecklat, hade tjänat på några år till. Svarta vinbär, mörka körsbär, plommon, örter, ceder. Något kantigt. Lite strävt. Medelsyra.

Had at Bouchon with steak frites. Aerated for 45min. Very nice. Thoroughly enjoyable. Tons of graphite/flint which I love from certain Margaux wines. Dark cherry, blueberry, soft tannins, hint of anise, and fine mouthfeel. Medium bodied with long finish. Will get again. Nice 2nd wine. Drink now.

Medium-bodied, fresh, fruity and floral with freshness, soft, elegant textures and ample, sweet, red fruits that carry from the mid-palate through to the finish. This is perfect for restaurants or early, drinking pleasure while waiting for the Grand Vin to mature. Drink from 2024-2035.

Nose is blackberry liquor. Blackberry juice with high alcohol nice juicy fruit spicy intense, tannins are drying and lasting. Previous reviewer captures the wine quite well. Not a shy Margaux, tattooed with tannins and alcohol and purple hair.

Decanted and back into the bottle for 4 hours. Dark magenta, not showing much in signs of age. Pencil shavings show up first on the nose, with soubois, dark cherry, rustic oak, dusty gravel, and tobacco leaf. Palate is both fruity and herbal, with a nice merlot roundness. Feels like this will peak early. I like it now, but probably best in 2-3 years.

Decanted for a couple of hours allowing the wine to settle down and present it's best self.

Leather and spice and liquorice. Easy to drink and very agreeable.

Bought 6 bottles many years ago, and tested it now and then. Always been a huge disappointment. Now 15’ish years on I was not let down! The wine offered every bit of the Margaux notes that I love and it was almost straight out of the bottle (p&p; no sediments). Clearly got better with time in the glass and over a couple of hours, but had potential from the get go. Once again proves that you can’t rush classic Bordeaux.

Classic Margaux fragrance, but low on complexity. It enters pretty smoothly with low acidity and tannin. However, despite its dark translucent ruby colored core, it's concentration is on the light side and ends in a short somewhat bitter finish. Simply put, it is a very straightforward commercially styled wine that won't improve with further bottle age. Only vaguely reminiscent of the Chateau's grand vin's style.

Notes of plum and cassis with a finish of leather, vanilla, and earth. Tannins are well integrated. A very nice Margaux.

Deep ruby red colour. Medium nose with dark cherry, black plum, spices, cedar and tobacco. Medium taste of dark cherry, dark plum, blackcurrant, spices and cedar. Medium long and dry finish. High acidity. High tannins. Medium body. A fruity and juicy Margaux that could be enjoyed now if given some air, or have a potential to develop further. Goes well with beef or lamb.

Nice drink. Not complex, but good. Some unusual aromas for Margaux and Bordeaux in general in my experience (green apple most prominently). No Bordeaux must. Obviously Cabernet-based. Alcohol a bit on the high side. But, again, enjoyed with a piece of grilled salmon.

From 500 ml.
Meh. Delicate, red-fruited, decent acidity, a little thin on the mid-palate and a somewhat short finish. The flavours are enjoyable (red berries, light spices, a touch of leather) but overall there is nothing really forcing us to take notice. Obviously at the price paid in this restaurant, there is no value there.

Some CT notes and web reviews mention that the wine is (was?) dark fruited and concentrated. This bottle was not.

8/27/2023 - xyc Does not like this wine: NR

Saturated mildly plummy fruit, hints of spice and chocolate on the finish. Not a classic structured Bdx though enjoyable and well priced.
The lower half of the cork was stained bright purple and the cork broke up upon opening. You may want to do regular checks on any held in in the cellar.

Day 2 I thought there was a whiff of funk and some bitter taste but waited for second taste.
Odd funky sulfuric like aroma not like anything I've encountered in wine. Not barnyard, nor vinegar. Bitter stem is extreme today. Bad bottle.

Still rather plummy, with a plump rounded palate. Quite delicious at this stage, with a night blend of blues and reds and violets on the nose. Fresh with a nice tannic backbone. Nice medium weight bdx. For early drinking.

Blue fruits and dried flowers. Medium bodied with silky tannins and quite sappy acids and good freshness. Yet this wine remains tightly coiled and really needs time.

Cedar, black cherries, spice and floral aromatics show in the perfume. On the palate, the wine is bright, fresh, soft and silky. Already open and accessible, this medium-bodied, lively wine is ready-to-go with its elegant, red berry and cocoa oriented finish, Enjoy this in its youth while waiting for the Grand Vin to develop. Drink from 2023-2032.

By the glass. I still remember when I drank the third wine from this winery relatively often. This second is much more on the side of black berry jam on the nose and dryness caused by wood on the palate. It needs a lot more time to tune up.

Por copas. Todavía recuerdo cuando bebía con relativa frecuencia el tercer vino de esta bodega. Este segundo es mucho más del lado de la mermelada de bayas negras en nariz y de la sequedad provocada por la madera en boca. Necesita de mucho más tiempo para afinarse.

With steak, baked potato, cesar salad, classic meal. Deep, bold wine, tannic, to my taste buds, a good pairing. But I suspect it may still be young. I would like to do a verticle of this same wine with some older vintages. Any suggestions?
