Tasted at the vertical tasting held at the property, the 1989 Chateau Siran is a blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 15% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc. The 1989 clearly offers more fruit than the 1988 Siran, which is no surprise, quite warm and sensual though not complex. Hints of raspberry coulis and wild strawberry mix with leather and game - a thoroughly pleasurable bouquet in which to immerse yourself. The palate has matured well over the last 20 years. Game, dried blood and ferrous notes intermingle with the red berry fruit. There is good structure here and a keen line of acidity through until the finish, which is solid and persistent. I much prefer this to the 1982 Siran, although I would not leave it for too much longer. Tasted February 2016.
