justerini & brooks tasting note

A new property to our en primeur offer. An open-knit nose of ripe blackcurrant fruit, with good weight and power, gives way to seductive crushed blackberry on the palate; there are beautiful tannins that grip well through to a long, fine finish. Fine stuff indeed!

91/100Antonio Galloni,Vinous

The 2005 Siaurac is such a pleasant surprise. At fifteen years of age, it is at a gorgeous plateau of maturity. Cedar, tobacco, dried black cherry and worn-in leather are the signatures of a wine with a fair bit of bottle age, and yet the 2005 clearly has enough freshness to drink well for another decade. There is a bit of angularity in the tannin, perhaps because of the extraction and/or cooperage, but I am willing to look past that because the wine has aged so gracefully. This is an eye-opening wine that makes me rethink the aging potential of wines from this Right Bank satellite appellation.
