2016 Petite Sirène de Château Giscours, Bordeaux
Over the past decade, the surge in quality weve been seeing (and tasting!) in the under-£15 red-Bordeaux category has hardly been more triumphant than in the scrumptious 2016 Petite Sirène (Bordeaux AOC) from Margauxs famous Château Giscours. For over five years, our best-selling Left Bank claret at this price point.
A classically styled, everyday claret thats perfect for the season: blackberry and cedar aromas, juicy plum, black cherry, sweet spice, firm tannins, and a long, lingering finish. Whether its with Tuesday-night pork chops or Sundays roast lunch, its the red Bordeaux youll reach for. Regularly.

Really impressive claret with more Cabernet than often the case. Delicious. (previous vintage)
Really lovely balanced Bordeaux drinking beautifully right now. Plenty of red and black berry fruit and little hints of earthy maturity. Refreshing lively finish. A delicious bargain. (previous vintage)
