Poetic License: Siran 1920-1929

BY NEAL MARTIN |

The invitation came from Margaux: 

To taste wines made a century ago. 

Siran was the destination, 

For this one-off dégustation

Eight bottles fetched from their cellar,

Mirrors of that season’s weather. 

Nineteen-twenty to twenty-nine 

Of time-bending Bordeaux wine.

In a change to our regular programming, Vinous presents readers with a Tuesday poem about century-old bottles of Siran. We will revert back to normal prose straight after.
