Board meetings, seminars, business lunches, cocktails and product launches for 10 to 180 people take place in five rooms of a Margaux wine estate. Château Siran lies at Labarde, in the Médoc, about 30 minutes from Bordeaux and the Cité du Vin, and the estate dates its family ownership to 1859.
Seminars and company events
The estate rents its spaces by the half day, the full day or as venue only, all year round by reservation. Formats include strategy meetings, executive committees, conferences, business lunches, cocktails and launches. The Salon de Bacchus is the main meeting room, with up to 100 people in conference layout or 50 around a U-shaped table, natural light and a view over the vines. Workshops and smaller meetings fit the Salon des Irlandais. For a closed-door executive committee or a small dinner, the Bunker, a former anti-nuclear shelter, seats 20. Tastings and estate visits, including a vertical tasting in the Bunker, can be added to a working day. Private parking takes up to 50 cars.
Weddings and receptions
The official site presents business events, visits and tastings, and does not offer weddings. Corporate receptions are well served: the Chai des Collections takes 180 for a cocktail, and the Terrasse 360° hosts drinks outdoors facing the vineyards.
Rooms and capacities
The five spaces range from 80 to 230 m². The Chai des Collections (230 m²) seats 100 for a meal or holds 180 for a cocktail, among more than 300 art and archaeology objects. The Salon de Bacchus (120 m²) seats 80 for a meal, 120 for a cocktail, 100 in conference layout or 50 in a U. The Salon des Irlandais (100 m²), with its fireplace and antique dressers, seats 50 or holds 80 standing. The Terrasse 360° (80 m²) is outdoors, for 30 seated or 50 standing. The Bunker (80 m²) seats 20 or holds 35.
Accommodation
La Bastide de Siran is a four-star furnished house in the estate's vineyard, with blue shutters, three air-conditioned bedrooms, two bathrooms and room for six guests. It suits speakers or a small leadership team. Larger groups stay in hotels around Margaux or in Bordeaux.
Catering
The estate serves lunches on the Terrasse 360° and gourmet platters with its visits. For seminars, business lunches, dinners and cocktails are arranged with the team when booking; the official site does not detail menus.
History and setting
The first record of Siran goes back to 1428, when Guilhem de Siran swore a feudal oath. Léo Barbier bought the estate in 1859, and the Miailhe family runs it today; Édouard Miailhe, the sixth generation, has led Siran since 2007. The 17-hectare vineyard forms a single block in Margaux. Since the 1980 vintage, the labels have been illustrated by well-known artists.
Getting there
The address is 13 avenue du Comte JB Lynch, 33460 Labarde. Bordeaux and the Cité du Vin are about 30 minutes by road. Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport and Bordeaux Saint-Jean station are the main arrival points for groups.
