CHÂTEAU SIRAN

« For more than 160 years, my family has been striving to produce a wine of pleasure, a wine for sharing, which finds its perfect expression in this beautiful phrase from Stéphanie de Saint-Aubin, Countess of Genlis: « One can only enjoy well what one shares. »

Édouard Miailhe

OUR KNOW-HOW

Making wine is a daily challenge

For six months we alternate between praising or fighting against the weather. Finally, at the crucial moment of the harvest, we make sure that the grapes selected to enter our cellar are transformed as naturally as possible into an elegant and silky wine, respectful of the beauty of our terroir. We try not to intervene too much and learn from each vintage.
