Château Siran
The Miailhe family has steered the fortunes of this Margaux cru for 160 years and, thanks to considerable investment in recent years, has brought it up to Grand Cru Classé standards.
The Miailhe family, who acquired the estate from Henri Toulouse-Lautrec's grandparents in 1859, could have made a lot more money from the wines over the years if the original owner family, the Barbier family, had not refused inclusion in the 1855 classification for political reasons in 1855.
