DESCRIPTION

La Sirène de Giscours is the second wine of Château Giscours from the Margaux appellation in Bordeaux. It takes its name “La Sirène” (meaning “mermaid”) is inspired by the historic emblem of Château Giscours, which features a siren figure. It also draws from a legend, telling of someone who witnessed a mermaid swimming in the Châteaux’s lake.

Crafted from a classic Left Bank blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, this medium bodied refined red wine reveals refined notes of black cherry, subtle tannins, spice, and delicate florals.

EYE

Deep ruby red with garnet reflections, showing elegance and concentration.

NOSE

Refined and expressive, with aromas of blackcurrant, plum, violet, and subtle notes of cedar and spice.

MOUTH

Smooth and well-structured, with silky tannins and balanced acidity. Layers of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of oak lead to a long, elegant finish.

PAIRING

Pairs beautifully with roasted meats, duck, lamb, and mushroom dishes. Also ideal with aged cheeses and classic French cuisine.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is the world's most famous fine-wine region, home to legendary châteaux, the 1855 Classification and elegant red blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, as well as great dry and sweet whites.

Geographic position: Southwestern France, in the Gironde department around the city of Bordeaux, along the Garonne and Dordogne rivers and the Gironde estuary, about 50 km from the Atlantic. Around 270,000 acres of vines make it France's largest fine-wine vineyard.

Origin & history: The Romans planted vines here in the 1st century. The marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine to Henry Plantagenet in 1152 placed Bordeaux under English rule for 300 years, and its "claret" became England's favourite wine. Merchants (négociants) and the 1855 Classification built its global prestige.

Main appellations & varieties: Left Bank (Médoc, Pauillac, Margaux, Saint-Julien, Saint-Estèphe, Pessac-Léognan, Graves) led by Cabernet Sauvignon; Right Bank (Saint-Émilion, Pomerol, Fronsac) led by Merlot and Cabernet Franc; Entre-Deux-Mers and Sauternes for whites from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle.

Food specialties: Entrecôte à la bordelaise, Pauillac lamb, Arcachon oysters with Sauvignon Blanc, cèpes mushrooms, lamprey stew and canelés, the little caramelised cakes of Bordeaux.
