Bright ruby red, with a kiss of smoky grilled oak, along with raspberry and redcurrant fruit, well balanced and juicy with a slate finish. An attractive 2021, one to look out for, great stuff from the Mialhe family. A solid structure, plenty of depth and a good core. Hubert de Bouard consultant. Harvest September 23 to October 9, with a generous 51hl/h yield. Impressive, tasted twice. 35% new oak. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux
Pretty, wild floral notes on the nose alongside fresh raspberry. Supple and agile, this has a lovely ease to it - not showy or too loud, but gentle and calm, delivering chalky, creamy red fruits with soft, fine, graphite-edged tannins. Pleasing acidity gives a persistent if not totally lively lift throughout, and this has an unfussy charm with lovely crushed stone salinity on the finish. No drop in the mid-palate, but lightly flavoured with gentle persistency. Easy to enjoy. Tasted twice. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter
A layered and fine-tannined red with currants and light graphite and stone undertones, Medium body. Fresh, linear finish. Grows on the palate. - James Suckling
There is a large gap between the quality of the 2021 Siran and the Deuxième Vin because of the Merlot this year. Picked between September 23 and October 9, and matured in 35% new oak, the Siran has a delicate, perfumed bouquet of wild strawberry, raspberry and light cassis scents. The palate is malleable, with fleshy red fruit that segues into darker fruit laced with graphite. Nicely balanced, albeit with less substance than the 2019 or 2020 (as you would expect), this Siran should drink well over the next 12–15 years. (13.0% alcohol) - Neal Martin, Vinous Media
The 2021 Siran unfurls in the glass with notes of blackberries, cassis, warm spices and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, supple and lively, with a pretty core of fruit and powdery tannins that assert themselves on the saline finish, it's a blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot and 11% Petit Verdot. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate
