Den Chateau Kirwan 2016 Margaux beschreibt Lisa Perrotti-Brown wie folgt:
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Kirwan is scented of red plums, cassis, redcurrants, earth and cigar box. The palate is medium-bodied, lean, chewy and lively with an earthy finish.
James Suckling im Januar 2019
There’s fragrant charm here with purple flowers and a swathe of ripe, juicy dark berries. This has a firmish overall feel with sturdy tannins, driving ripe and fresh, red and dark berries long. The oak is very nicely played.
Den Chateau Kirwan 2016 Margaux beschreibt Jeb Dunnuck wie folgt:
One of the more finesse-driven examples of this cuvée that I can remember, the 2016 Château Kirwan offers up a medium ruby color to go with notes of smoke tobacco, gravelly minerality, graphite, and sweet cassis fruit. Medium-bodied, elegant and supple, if not a touch lean, it’s not a blockbuster but has outstanding purity and notable elegance. Drink it over the coming 15 years or so.
Den Chateau Kirwan 2016 Margaux beschreibt Fallstaff wie folgt:
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, dezente Randaufhellung, einladende dunkle Beerenfrucht, ein Hauch von Vanille und Edelholz, attraktives Bukett. Stoffig, rund und elegant, feine, eingebettete Tannine, extraktsüßer Nachhall, frisch und mineralisch, gutes Zukunftspotenzial.
