The vineyards of Chateau Kirwan lie on the Cantenac plateau, with near neighbours Prieure-Lichine and Desmirail. The soils here are sandy, and dominated by gravel topsoil.
A beautiful bouquet of forest floor, plums, licorice, creme de cassis, and smoke emerges from this opaque ruby/purple-tinged effort. Medium-bodied with plenty of sweet tannin in addition to low acidity, it leaves a beautiful tactile impression that is concentrated yet fresh and lively. 93 points - Robert Parker
