Château Kirwan is produced in the appellation of Margaux.
Covering an area of 40 hectares, the vineyard is located on a gravelly hillside in the Pyrenees.
The wine's deep and brilliant ruby red colour reflects a nose of black and red berries – cherry, black currant, blueberry, enhanced by aromas of spices, pink peppercorns and vanilla. This vintage has a strikingly tactile quality; it starts out mellow, then offers the taste buds a rich body, with nearly imperceptible tannins and an acidity that perfectly balances out its silky texture. The finale blends hints of perfectly ripened cherry and subtle roasted notes that continue to caress the palate.
