Margaux

Deep, brilliant ruby red colour and a very intense nose of ripe fruit. On the palate, it shows all the finesse and elegance that typifies the wines of Margaux. Excellent structure thanks to the Petit Verdot, which adds depth and spicy notes on the mid-palate

Highly refined and precise, the 2015 vintage reflects splendid ripe appes at optimal maturity. The mouthfeel is impressively elegant and smooth. It is well-balanced with a touch of freshness and thus has exceptional ageing potential.

This vintage offers a very subtle expression of finesse, elegance, freshness of fruit and a harmonious finish. On the nose, there are intense aromas of redcurrants, blueberries, lilac, violet and mineral notes. On the palate, there are hints of spice and light tobacco with smooth, silky tannins.

Second wine of Chateau Kirwan: a very harmonious, smooth, well-balanced wine. Beautifully pure fruit with great concentration.

Made with 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Merlot the wine is soft and silky with perfumed strawberry jam on the nose. Ripe plum and cream come through on the palate which has supple tannins and an attractive, lively red fruit finish. This elegant Margaux will be lovely to drink, share and enjoy over the next decade
