Château Siaurac is an extraordinary property nestled on the extension of the renowned Pomerol plateau in Néac, boasting the largest estate in the Lalande de Pomerol appellation. Spanning 46 hectares of vines and 15 hectares of picturesque parkland, this Right Bank gem has a rich history dating back to 1832 when it was acquired by Pierre Brisson, a Libourne notary and Saint-Émilion town councilor.
The estate is embracing organic and biodynamic farming, further enhancing the quality of its wines while making strides toward a sustainable future. The 2020 vintage is the first that was made as a certified organic. The 40 distinct plots that make up Château Siaurac's terroir feature soils of gravel, deep clay, and clayey sand, perfectly suited for its signature grape varieties—Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec.
Château Siaurac is charting an upward course that wine lovers can’t afford to miss. Recent critics’ scores consistently over 90 points validate its rise, and the estate’s blend of history and natural practices make it a standout in the world of Bordeaux.
The wines are richly textured and smooth, thanks to a Merlot-dominant blend with accents of Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Expect plush fruit, refined structure, and an utterly approachable character—qualities that make Château Siaurac a true bargain in the Bordeaux landscape, especially with prices well under $30. Whether you’re a Bordeaux enthusiast or simply love discovering exceptional wines at great value, Château Siaurac delivers in every way.
James Suckling: 91 Points
Aromas of blackcurrants and blackberries with tobacco, dark spices and cedar. Medium-bodied with chewy tannins and a juicy fruit character. Flavorful and delicious. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. Drink or hold.
