This second wine from Château Giscourd is seductive in its elegance and delicacy. La Sirène de Giscours has a very fruity aromatic palette. This wine brings a freshness to the moment of tasting, as well as silky tannins enhanced by a creamy texture. Thanks to its fine Margaux nuances, this wine can be enjoyed young or kept for several years. La Sirène de Giscours is a blend of several grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
