2015 Chateau Kirwan Pre-Arrival Offer

Other reviews...
The 2015 Kirwan has a very opulent, heady bouquet that perhaps has its foot pressed down a little too hard on the accelerator? It just feels a little ostentatious compared directly with its peers. The palate goes some way to restore order with small dark cherries, taut and quite firm tannin with a very citrus-fresh finish. It is a Margaux that seems to be on full glare at the moment - I hope that during élevage the contrast is toned down, so that there is more balance and a sense of terroir can come through, because this estate can produce great wines.

Fresh, with a light iron frame around the red currant and damson plum fruit. Pretty lilac details chime in on the cedar-edged finish.

A floral nose then showing all the class and natural old- vine concentration expected from Kirwan. A firmly classic wine.

So much character here of wet earth, mushroom and black currants. Full and powerful. Chewy tannins yet polished and very fine. Focused intense.

Fresh, ripe and fruity, this wine exhibits the fine character of a Margaux in 2015. Dense fruits and well-formed tannins give richness and a fresh character that is generously sustained by the tannins.
