Note di degustazione
Finessed, with a focus on floral peony aromatics, with raspberry and redcurrant fruits, along with a gentle campfire toast. Retasting the 2021s is always interesting, and there is charm here, but the acidity is more evident than in other vintages. Well handled, deft. 50% new oak for ageing, 33hl/h yield after frost. Eric Boissenot consultant, Philippe Delfaut director.

Spiced red and blue fruits, tobacco, cedary herbs, and some background spicy oak all emerge from the 2021 Château Kirwan, a medium-bodied, nicely balanced, elegant Margaux that has ripe tannins, good mid-palate depth, and outstanding length. It's going to pick up a tad more finesse and elegance with 2-4 years in the cellar and drink beautifully over the following decade or thereabouts.
The 2021 Kirwan has a mixture of red and black fruit with touches of beetroot on the nose, cohesive and quite Saint-Julien in style. The palate is medium-bodied with a pliant entry. Nicely balanced with moderate weight, it’s quite sweet toward the finish compared to its peers. The 2021 is not bad, but I have definitely tasted better in other vintages.
The 2021 Kirwan opens with crushed rose petal, bright red-toned fruit, cedar and a hint of pipe tobacco. Fresh and vibrant, with mid-weight structure, the 2021 is a wine of understatement more than anything else. I find it refined and refreshing, two attributes that will serve it well for a number of years.
