Is the 2022 vintage a new 1982? After a cool 2021, 2022 was marked by extreme heat, with temperatures between 35 and 40°C, more typical of the Mediterranean. Chateau Siran's vines have adapted well, but the climate is undeniably changing. With only 650 mm of rainfall instead of the usual 950 mm, yields were among the lowest at just 35 hl/ha. Harvesting began early and rapid vinification produced a wine full of fruit, sweetness and freshness. Although the yield was low, the quality was exceptional. Will this be another legendary vintage, like 1982? Only time will tell.In keeping with family tradition, each label features a different theme: the painting for the 2022 vintage, by British artist Damian Elwes, pays tribute to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, celebrating her unforgettable legacy.
94 Points - James Suckling
The lead-pencil and dark-berry aromas are very persuasive here, and aromatic! Medium to full body with juicy fruit, velvety tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Creamy and pretty.
94 Points - Wine Spectator
Hibiscus and iris accents are infused liberally throughout a core of mulberry and blackberry puree in this version. Black tea and sanguine hints add range on the fleshy finish, which ends with a lovely sweet cedar echo. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.
92 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Aromas of minty cassis, herbs and pencil shavings introduce the 2022 Siran, a medium to full-bodied, velvety and lively wine that's seamless and integrated. This is an especially strong effort for this estate.
